What is it with people fascination with killing off Ford Australia? It's like a sport here.

I'm not talking imminent closure, I'm saying long term beyond 2028 it's hard to see
Do you know how much profit our region made last year?
I'm having difficulty finding out because Ford keeps moving Australia around like we don't belong anymore.
All those people out of work once the work starts moving back to America, they're already white Anting
the project and looking to claw back whatever work Dearborn can. Powertrain is feeling it now but
I bet the yanks will want a bigger say in designing their regions models.
