Ford lays off 700 who were building electric version of F-150 | CNN Business::Ford is laying off about 700 workers who build the F-150 Lightning, the electric version of its best-selling pickup truck, and unlike other recent layoffs this one has nothing to do with the ongoing strike by the United Auto Workers union.
The original comment was technically correct but misleading, which is why it was rightfully downvoted. Ford lobbied for and profited from government bailouts and received a bunch of tax money from other programs, so they’re still very much counting on government support.
