Surovell gets it right: “to deny [people in the community] jobs because you’re in last place in Republican presidential primaries [is] gubernatorial malpractice.”[/quote]

How much corporate welfare was Ford looking for? Hyundai got $2 billion from Georgia for the plant cited in the article - I’m guess Youngkin didn’t want to get in a bidding war and used Chyna as an excuse.

Any modern auto factory is going to require a bidding war because there are great paying factory jobs at the plant as well as all of the ancillary jobs created by the presence of a plant. [/quote]

They aren’t great paying. And they aren’t even Ford jobs. It’s all a big anti UAW scam and luckily the commonwealth has leaders who saw through it. Michigan has idiot leaders and will probably give away the farm so they can “win” it.[/quote]

This.  Pretty amazing to read comments from liberals who apparently don't want to acknowledge “the reality is that the technology that in fact drives all that (batteries) is owned and dominated by the Chinese.”  (Youngkin's words).  Funny that they don't seem at all concerned about this:

"Ford Motor Company building a battery manufacturing plant in Virginia that [b]would be operated by Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., or CATL, a Chinese company that is the largest producer of electric vehicle batteries in the world and under the Ford agreement would retain ownership of the technology used in building the battery cells."

Good for Youngkin.  Glad he's in charge and not some idiot Democrat.[/quote]

It’s a transparent union-busting anti UAW scam. Peppering these factories all over the US and Mexico, running them through non union foreign owned subsidiaries, and getting boatloads of corporate welfare. American masses are soaked subsidizing this garbage, the jobs and awful benefits keep peasants in poverty, the headcount is never as high as they claim, and when the incentives run out they’ll just walk away from the toxic site. Rinse, repeat.

Socialism for the very rich, rugged individualism for the poor.[/quote]
Republicans care whether jobs are union jobs now? Huh.[/quote]
