Nissan Announces Plans To Build Electric Vehicles In Mississippi

Good shit!
I bet the workers won't have a union....
A union? For what? This the poorest state in the country.
you will have ALOT of folk who think like these folks and will vote against a union, if given a choice.
All bullshit aside, I know people who have worked at the Canton plant since it opened 20 years ago. Those people are paid well above the average for what folk are getting in Mississippi. They have put kids through college, paid for weddings, and retired off those jobs. With nothing but a high school diploma. It ain’t a whole bunch of jobs to go around down there. You still have Viking Range, I think Medart left some years ago, but those folks are hurting. Just starting a union for the sake of starting one is asine. FOLKS NEED JOBS!!!
Your assumption is that companies will always take care of their employees. All it takes is for a slight management change to blow everything up.
Even the threat of a union forces some companies to stay honest.
Look at Amazon, do you really think they would have upped their wages if folks weren't thinking about unionizing?
Amazon is a different animal. They operate primarily in high density areas of the country, their model falls off in rural areas. They were supposed to open a facility in Canton but walked it back. Nissan has been good for the past twenty years. They give employee discounts on vehicles. Unions may be good in urban areas, but in the South you have very few decent entry level jobs that allow you to take care of a familly. I think Nissan pays about $20 entry level, the median is about $13 in MS. The minimum is $7 and some change. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it.
Tax breaks and cheap labor basically.
Exactly
Elite will always find a way to take advantage of the masses...until the masses begin to understand exactly how they are fucked by the elite in every facet of their lives..

They need repurpose that plant to fixing their shitty ass CVTs
I'm not sure what that movie is about, I haven't seen it. Bottom line is Unions have never benefitted black labor. Ever. To demand that an overwhelming black labor force unionize is against their own interests. It's a fools errand.Art imitating life
That was my movieArt imitating life
I made some calls and got domestic production guarantees.
Some of the tactics they used with shoe and apparel production are starting to be used with the auto industry. They want to completely eliminate all domestic production in most cases. They attack/discredit the CEO/endorsers of domestic companies to destroy with sexual assault allegations or racism claims. CNN, a transnational news outlet eagerly covering your discrimination claim is not an act of benevolence. They went after American Apparel and destroyed the company with unrelenting coverage, of course he tried to mount the models. Many jobs were lost, jobs that would be in another country with an unlivable wage.
If it wasn't for me, they would pushing their nonsense with some black fool talking about colleges, influencers attacking political candidates pushing to increase domestic production.

Might as well ain't shit down there...them folks extremely lucky to get them a decent paying job...
Dam sho ain't 17 years...brah
Have you ever actually talked to any black folks who were in a union? There's an organization called CBTU that would say differently.
Well the buyer's will not be forced to give up their cars or go to jail like they did the ev 1s and ev2s
Bullshit...we aint all about riding horses...don't believe what you heard... come and see for yourself.. brah
They voted
Of course they won't, and Black workers voted it down a few years back. That racist Governor got a huge win
Having worked as a union worker I can tell you, I would never work a union job again. Unions are good for some people but not everyone. See companies can avoid paying the better workers by sticking to the signed union contract agreement.
Most likely they'll have contract workers.
Nissan on the move talks have started on building a New Nissan Stadium where Tennessee Titans play
