Volkswagen Lost China. 100,000 Workers Get the Bill.
Read more . . . →Volkswagen wants to cut up to 100,000 jobs and shut four German plants — the biggest restructuring in the company’s 89-year history, roughly one in seven of everyone who works there. The sites on the chopping block, including Zwickau, Hanover, Emden, and Audi’s factory in Neckarsulm, employ more than 45,000 people between them. And the reason a worker in Emden is about to lose the thing his whole town is built around? Management got beaten in China. BYD and the other homegrown brands ate VW’s lunch, sales in its single biggest market fell 20 percent in one quarter, and the...

This Week on coldplaysucks — June 28–July 5
Read more . . . →The low end ran the table this week — nine drum and bass tracks, seven dubstep, seven house of one flavour or another. Somewhere in the pile two ghosts from the ’90s wandered back onto the site: a Paul Oakenfold trance anthem from 1999 and a Detroit house record older than half the people who’ll dance to it.

Now here’s where the $900 went. The richest one percent are getting an average net tax cut of $66,000. The top tenth of one percent — the yacht tier — clears roughly $200,000. So you handed over nine hundred bucks and a guy who owns three...
