Fisker tried to make a go of it in Delaware, but there is a severe shortage of skilled blue collar workers in the U.S.. People did not apply in sufficient numbers to staff the type of manufacturing they would be doing. They even offered training for the factory workers, but in the end, they had to go where people were willing to work. The Job Training Partnership Act would have helped in this regard, if it had not been axed in '98.sigpic

Just keep cutting down the trees to print more money.... Be easier just to pay workers to stay at home. Nobody is buying electric cars for the most part unless you live in tinsel town and need to tout it's so great for the enviroment yet they live in 9k square foot house with all the lights on.Comment
