[damirUSBiH + 327]

According by management, Ford Motor it would temporarily layoff about 2,000 hourly employees at its Michigan assembly and stamping plants in Wayne, as the factories undergo retooling to build the Ranger pickup trucks and Bronco sport utility vehicles. Generally, not so optimistic and reformist vision.... 2,000 people on the street. The layoffs will start in early May..

Losing jobs for the base is becoming a problem for country.

Too many families will be affected...Workers will receive 75% of salary during lay off, but still they will stay without their job.

nobody is losing their job. It is a temporary layoff while maintenance is conducted. It happens.

What does it mean temporary layoff? You send workers home and hire them again sometimes in 2030.

The Ford changeover layoff happen every time there's a Model change. It's been going on for years. They say they'll hire them again later this year. Unless temporary becomes permanent.

I thought the tax cuts were supposed to increase jobs not delete them.
