Mexico’s Ban on Genetically Modified Corn to be Addressed at North American Leaders’ Summit

https://orinocotribune.com/mexicos-ban-on-genetically-modified-corn-to-be-addressed-at-north-american-leaders-summit/

'More than 300 peasant, indigenous, and environmental organizations of Mexico came together in the national campaign Sin Maíz No Hay País, or “Without corn there is no country” to support the ban on the import of genetically modified corn. These organizations have highlighted the damage that genetically modified crops cause to biodiversity, especially in a country like Mexico, which is one of the most biodiverse countries in the world, and where corn is the staple food.'

The Strange Case of USA Lobbyists Pushing Unsafe GM Food on Others

https://countercurrents.org/2022/11/the-strange-case-of-usa-lobbyists-pushing-unsafe-gm-food-on-others/

The world is more used to campaigns for promoting safe food and so it is strange indeed that recently we have been hearing more about highly dubious efforts to promote extremely hazardous GM foods, GM crops and technologies! Clearly GM foods pose one of the greatest health hazards and unacceptably high environmental hazards and should be resisted and stopped by a very strong nationwide and worldwide campaign.

...scrapping streetcars and tearing up railways to replace them with GM's own buses running on Standard Oil supplied diesel.

By the end of the 1940s, GM had bought and scrapped over one hundred municipal electric transit systems in 45 cities and put gas-burning GM buses on the streets in their place. By 1955 almost 90% of the electric streetcar lines in the United States had been ripped out or otherwise eliminated.

...Another existential threat to the vast fortunes of the early oiligarchs was to require an even greater effort at social engineering: public transportation.

By the end of World War I, private car ownership was still a relative rarity; only one in ten Americans owned a car. Rail was still the transportation of choice for the vast majority of the public, and city-dwellers in most major cities relied on electric trolley networks to transport them around town. In 1936, General Motors formed a front company, "National City Lines," along with Firestone Tire and Standard Oil of California, to implement a process of "bustitution": scrapping streetcars and tearing up railways to replace them with GM's own buses running on Standard Oil-supplied diesel. The plan was remarkably successful.

As historian and researcher F. William Engdahl notes in "Myths, Lies and Oil Wars":

"By the end of the 1940s, GM had bought and scrapped over one hundred municipal electric transit systems in 45 cities and put gas-burning GM buses on the streets in their place. By 1955 almost 90% of the electric streetcar lines in the United States had been ripped out or otherwise eliminated."

The cartel had been careful to hide their involvement in National City Lines, but it was revealed to the public in 1946 by an enterprising retired naval lieutenant commander, Edwin J. Quinby. He wrote a manifesto exposing what he called "a careful, deliberately planned campaign to swindle you out of your most important and valuable public utilities — your Electric Railway System." He uncovered the oiligarchs' stock ownership of National City Lines and its subsidiaries and detailed how they had, step by step, bought up and destroyed the public transportation lines in Baltimore, Los Angeles, St. Louis and other major urban centres.

Quinby's warning caught the attention of federal prosecutors, and in 1947 National City Lines was indicted for conspiring to form a transportation monopoly and conspiring to monopolize sales of buses and supplies. In 1949, GM, Firestone, Standard Oil of California and their officers and corporate associates were convicted on the second count of conspiracy. The punishment for buying up and dismantling America's public transportation infrastructure? A $5,000 fine. H. C. Grossman, who had been the director of Pacific City Lines when it oversaw the scrapping of LA's $100 million Pacific Electric system, was fined exactly $1.

Unsurprisingly, GM and its associates did not remain in the doghouse for long. In 1953, President Eisenhower appointed Charles Wilson, then the President of General Motors, as Secretary of Defense. Wilson, with Francis DuPont of the Rockefeller-connected DuPont family as Chief Administrator of Federal Highways, oversaw one of the largest public works projects in American history: the creation of the interstate highway system. With a war-era excise tax on train tickets still in place and federally funded highways and airports providing cheaper alternatives, rail travel declined a startling 84% between 1945 and 1964.

This social engineering paid off well for Standard Oil and its growing list of petrochemical associates. In the two-and-a-half decades after the outbreak of World War II, vehicle production in Detroit almost tripled, from 4.5 million cars a year in 1940 to over 11 million in 1965. As a result, sales of refined gasoline over the same period rose 300%.

Дилеров будут банкротить за отказ делать гарантийный ремонт

image

Хотя многие иностранные автокомпании приостановили свою деятельность в России, из-за чего дилеры столкнулись с проблемами поставок оригинальных запчастей, необходимых для осуществления гарантийного ремонта, закон о защите прав потребителей никто не отменял. А согласно этому закону, если дилер не сможет устранить существенный технический недостаток в приобретенном у него автомобиле, он должен вернуть за него деньги. В […]

В Россию могут вернуться бюджетные модели Chevrolet

Недавно мы сообщали, что концерн GM, а вместе с ним и марка Chevrolet, уходят из России. Поставки машин уже остановлены. Однако, теперь стало известно, что это не касается автомобилей «Шевроле», которые собирают крупноузловым методом на казахском заводе «СарыаркаАвтоПром» из машинокомплектов поставляемых узбекской UzAuto Motors. Напомним, что официальные дилеры Chevrolet, работавшие напрямую с российским представительством General […]

Chevrolet и Cadillac уходят из России

image

Покидая Россию американцы не только «кинули» дилеров, отказав им в компенсации затрат, но и оставили российских владельцев уже купленных автомобилей без заводской гарантии и запчастей. И предъявлять претензии некому: по информации издания «Коммерсант» представительство General Motors в Москве закрывается, а все его сотрудники будут уволены. Причем никакой официальной информации о намерении уйти с нашего рынка […]

План «три нуля»: GM выпустит 30 новых электромобилей за 4 года

Стратегия «трех нулей», которая означает нулевые выбросы, нулевые аварии и нулевые заторы на дорогах – это то, на что в GM сейчас делают основную ставку и даст возможность концерну удвоить выручку к концу десятилетия. Реализовать задуманное позволит новая модульная платформа Ultium, на которой будет создана широкая гамма электромобилей с автономным вождением. Эта платформа одинаково подходит […]

GM is poised for growth as automaker targets trillions in new markets

From electric vehicles to air mobility: GM looks to grow beyond traditional auto industry

Key Points

  • The Detroit automaker’s innovation division has identified $1.3 trillion in new market opportunities that it believes complements its core business.
  • GM’s majority-owned autonomous vehicle unit Cruise is vying for what executives say could be an $8 trillion market in the future.
  • The company’s also dipping its toes into urban air mobility, which it predicts will be a more than $1 trillion market of its own.

DETROIT — Since taking over the helm of General Motors in 2014, CEO Mary Barra has meticulously cut costs, slashed about 64,000 jobs, exited unprofitable markets overseas and audaciously pledged to make GM an all-electric auto company by 2035.

Though controversial at times, each of those decisions took GM one step closer to where it is today: poised for growth in new markets.

Barra’s GM looks vastly different from the one she inherited out of the financial crisis. Leveraging its core business, GM is targeting trillions in future markets that stretch far beyond just selling cars and trucks.

“This is just the beginning for the next generation of General Motors,” Barra told investors Wednesday during GM’s first-quarter earnings call. “We are well on track with our plans to transform our company and lead the industry into the future.”

Leading much of the expansion is GM’s global growth and innovation team. New businesses from the team have included electric commercial vehicles, auto insurance, military defense and expanding services of its connected OnStar brand, with more new ventures on the way.
