Toyota lies about not moving U.S. jobs to Mexico!

“Once we decide to build a facility, we have to take responsibility for employment and the local society.”-Toyoda Akio, Toyota Motor President, during interview with NHK about plans to build a new factory in Mexico, 06 January 2017

“Toyota plans on manufacturing Corollas in Mexico….”-NHK, 05 January 2017

In past couple of days there were news reports of president elect Donald Trump threatening Nipponese company Toyota with huge tariffs if it moves production of Corollas to Mexico.  I’ve watched several reports on Nippon’s NHK (Nippon Housou Kyoukai/Japan Broadcasting Corporation), one report in which Toyota administrators actually stated they never had plans to move U.S. production to Baja California, Mexico.  That’s a lie!

In my December industrial job destruction report I wrote “Kentucky: What automotive industry recovery? Japan based Toyota eliminating the remaining 650 jobs as it shuts down its North American HQ in Erlanger!  News reports say at one time there were nearly 2-thousand Toyota employees in Kentucky.”

This is interesting because Toyota’s own U.S. website says “This is an exciting time to be a part of Toyota, as we bring together all of our headquarters operations in Plano, TX (about 20 miles north of Dallas), expand our technical center near York Township, MI, and build a new production engineering facility in Georgetown, KY.”

Some of those Kentucky jobs are going to Mexico!  It’s not just Toyota’s HQ in Kentucky that’s ‘moving’ to Mexico, but factory jobs across the U.S. as well.

NHK reporters pointed out that Toyota has already spent the past few years building a new factory in Mexico, proving that Toyota does plan to move U.S. production to Mexico.   Back in 2014, Toyota announced it would consolidate it’s U.S. factory production by the end of 2018, however, Toyota claimed it was moving the jobs to Texas and Michigan, not Mexico.

At the beginning of January 2017, some of the 648 Toyota HQ staff in Erlanger began leaving for the new HQ in Plano, Texas.  Toyota factories in California and New York are shutting down production under the consolidation plan (already in 2015 Toyota shifted Tacoma production from California to Texas).

But another clue that Toyota is planning on moving U.S. jobs to Mexico is the fact that Mexico’s leaders are trying to make deals to keep jobs in Mexico, including Toyota jobs since “Toyota is spending $1bn to expand its Mexican facilities and Akio Toyoda, its president, said the company will ‘see what policies the incoming [US] president adopts’ before deciding whether to take action.”

Idaho female becomes 1st ever U.S. PanzerFräulein!

05 January 2017 (05:32 UTC-07 Tango 06) 16 Dey 1395/06 Rabi ‘ath-Thani 1438/08 Ji Chou 4714

In August 2016 Sergeant First Class  Erin Smith was awarded with Idaho’s Spirit of Freedom Award.  Her ‘exceptional’ act was becoming the first ever female ‘tanker’ in the United States military!  (I wonder why the U.S. main stream national news media didn’t mention it?)

SFC Smith officially became a M1 tanker (MOS 19K) in June of 2016.  Her original MOS (Military Occupational Specialty) was healthcare specialist.  She deployed to Bosnia in 2002 and then Iraq in 2004, where she was awarded the Combat Medical Badge.

Smith’s transition to a combat MOS was the result of U.S. Defense Secretary Ash Carter opening combat jobs to women at the end of 2015.  However, I’ve always known some women can handle combat jobs no problem.  Several NATO member countries have had female’s in combat jobs for decades, such as Idaho’s neighbor to the north Canada.

While deployed for a ‘friendly’ armor contest with Canadian tankers in 2002, an impromptu main-gun loading contest was held between Bravo Company, 2-116th Armored Cav, Idaho National Guard and Canadian tankers in Alberta.  Main-gun rounds weigh about 19kg (40 pounds) and unlike the auto-loading Soviet/Russian panzers most U.S.-NATO tanks are manually loaded. Guess who won the manly competition? A skinny Canadian army officer who just happened to be a female!

But that’s not the first time I witnessed a female kicking ass over males. While attending Army Basic Training in 1982 one of my Army Drill Sergeants was a little female who could out push-up and out sit-up the men!

Still, I’m proud the Idaho National Guard can boast having the first female M1 Abrams tanker in the U.S.!

On 31 December 2016 a small ceremony was held in the city of Kent to welcome home the 179th Engineer Company, Washington National Guard.

On 30 March 2016, the 179th deployed to Iraq, several of their personnel are single parents.  On 06 May 2016, Lieutenant David Bauders was killed at the Al Asad Air Base in Iraq.  At the time the U.S. Department of Defense said Bauders’ death was being investigated as a ‘noncombat incident’.  So far no further details have been released to the public.

The 179th’s deployment to Iraq was its first combat deployment, however, the 179th is routinely deployed to the Kingdom of Thailand as part of the U.S. National Guard Bureau’s State Partnership Program.

On 01 January 2017, the Obama regime deployed about 7-hundred personnel from the 1st Battalion, 153rd Infantry Regiment, 39th Infantry Brigade Combat Team, Arkansas National Guard.  They were sent to the oil rich Horn of Africa region.

They will be part of the U.S. AfriCom occupation of Africa under the guise of the legally undeclared War on Terror (U.S. Congress never declared war, the last time that happened was January 1942 a full month after the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor).

Flavored edible spoons kick-ass over plastic, the new savior of your sacred cow!

I’m not religious, and I’ll eat your sacred cow any day, but this time I’m with those Hindu bovine lovers.

In the predominantly Hindu areas of British empire member India (they never went independent, it’s called the Commonwealth of Nations and the Queen of England is the boss) you can’t touch a cow, they roam here and there eating whatever, even in the metro areas. But it’s been revealed that many people in those cow worshiping areas are massive litter bugs, especially in the food service parts of town where thousands of plastic eating utensils (and anything else plastic) end up on the ground and then in the multi-chambered gut of those sacred cows.

Yep, those dumb cows have been gulping down any petro-oil based plastic item for decades, and now the Prime Minister is on a campaign to stop it because eating plastic is killing the cows and making their milk toxic.  But an extremely low-tech company has found a way to get rid of those high-tech utensils.

A sacred cow undergoing surgery to remove a mass of plastic from its gut

A company in the southern part of India (Bakey Foods) is making edible eating utensils out of wheat and rice flour, using a process that keeps them from disintegrating while you use them.   The process is similar to making homemade play-dough, which is then baked in ovens.    The top sellers are the edible utensils that have flavoring, and even sugar, in them.

The president of Bakey Foods hopes that over the next five years if enough Hindus use his edible utensils that five million tonnes (metric tons) of plastic would be kept off the streets.

Like I said at the beginning, I’m a cow eating carnivore but who want’s to eat a cow made of plastic?

The New York City based political policy think-tank known as Eurasia Group has declared the U.S. the biggest threat to the World in 2017, all because of Donald Trump!

However, the control freaks at Eurasia Group don’t think the threat to the World will be an overly aggressive President Trump, but that Trump will pull back from “…America’s responsibility to play an indispensable role in world affairs.”  In other words, the paranoids at Eurasia Group believe the U.S. must continue playing World Cop for other countries who refuse to police themselves!

Where can you find E-dragsters & 1,000+ E-buses?

China now boasts more than 1-thousand battery powered buses and California boasts the world’s fastest battery powered car (and it’s not a Tesla)!

Chinese investor funded (but California based) Faraday Future claims its new FF91 is the fastest battery powered car in the 0 to 60 miles per hour category:

The 2.39 second 0 to 101.4 kph (0-60 mph) run is achieved with a 130 kilowatt-hour energy/1-thousand 50 horsepower battery powered motor.  Company admin claim the FF91 can also travel 638.82 km (378 miles) before re-charging.  You need $5-thousand USD to “pre-order” your own FF91 (I wonder how much it costs to actually ‘order’ your car? Isn’t it impossible to pre-order anything because you’re actually ordering it when you pre-order?).  Even then you won’t get the car until 2018.

Just one of many styles of battery powered buses in Tianjin

The city of Tianjin just bought a new fleet of 5-hundred battery powered buses, bringing the overpopulated city’s E-bus inventory to 1-thousand 346!

The city also built a new bus charging station that can handle 448 buses per day (now considered the largest bus charging station ever), and the city claims they now have 201 charging stations (that a big city) city-wide!

Despite having a total of 3-thousand 220 clean energy buses (including the batt-powered buses) Tianjin is still one of the smoggiest cities in China.

Gun Ban Fail: Another mass attack where guns are totally banned!

Yet again there’s been a mass attack on a Kindergarten in a country that totally bans gun ownership; China.

In the province of Guangxi government controlled news media reporting that a man attacked 11 children with a knife, none of the victims were killed.  Police arrested the man but so far he’s given no reason for his attempted rampage.

Asian news sources point out that ‘social revenge’ attacks are common in China, despite the gun ban.   Also, if you research knife attacks in Guangxi you’ll discover that they are indeed very common, taking place mostly at schools or against children going to school, or in shopping areas.

By the way, don’t blame the Communists for the gun ban.  Guns were first banned in China by the U.S. backed Nationalist government, this is exactly why the Communists armed all the peasants, and why Mao Tse-Tung came to the conclusion that “Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.”

It’s for real; Government tracked Bar Codes for Humans!

“Barcodes are being used to trace NHS patients and their treatments, manage medical supplies and monitor the effectiveness of equipment.”-United Kingdom government revelation

The British empire’s United Kingdom’s National Health Service (NHS) announced it will start tracking humans in the ‘country’ of England with bar-codes, and it’ll cost taxpayers the equivalent of $14.76-million USD.

It’s known as project Scan4Safety.  The NHS claims it could save U.K. taxpayers $1.25-billion, partly by preventing the grossly under-reported cases of malpractice by incompetent healthcare personnel, however it’s a little more complicated than applying a bar-code to your body: “From the unique barcodes on wristbands patients receive when they enter hospital, to the barcodes used to record their medication and the equipment used in their treatment, each code can be scanned to show which member of staff administered each treatment, at what time and where.

By using barcodes, anything that might develop a fault years later, for example a screw used in a knee operation or breast implant, can be traced. The details, such as when it was used and the surgeon who carried out the procedure, can be found quickly and easily.“-NHS

Micro wires made from diamonds?

“The process is a simple, one-pot synthesis. You dump the ingredients together and you can get results in half an hour. It’s almost as if the diamondoids know where they want to go.”-Hao Yan, Stanford researcher

U.S. Department of Energy’s California based Stanford Linear Accelerator Center-National Accelerator Laboratory, and Stanford University, succeeded in creating micro electrical wires using micro-diamonds (officially called diamonoids) and interlocking cages of carbon and hydrogen, among other things.

Don’t think this process will get us off petroleum oil, the diamonoids, carbon and hydrogen come from oil.  The process essentially results in the micro-wires assembling themselves: “Much like Lego blocks, they only fit together in certain ways that are determined by their size and shape. The copper and sulfur atoms of each building block wound up in the middle, forming the conductive core of the wire, and the bulkier diamondoids wound up on the outside, forming the insulating shell.”-Fei Hua Li, Stanford researcher

The micro-wires could be used to make those Orwellian clothing, being made to monitor your every move, even more effective. (XENOMA: JAPAN DEVELOPS PARASITIC E-SKIN THAT LETS OTHER PEOPLE KNOW WHAT YOU’RE DOING!)
