They want to be cheap but the end up paying the money in the long run, the same or very much similar to what they would have been paying a union wage in another state. They went to a state where they can get the cheapest land and pay the people less, but as you said people are dumb as bricks and don't retain information.Toyota like any company will move to the state that allows the most fuckery. That is why my family moved to Dallas. They moved the corporate headquarters here cause Texas gave them incentives.
Not they are having issues cause the workforce here isn't as qualified and are having difficulty picking things up (dumb as rocks) but I guess they figure they are saving cash cause they pay lower wages.
Why is the south, so against unions??
Lack of education bruh because anybody with some sense of intelligence would know having a union is best for them as workers. They continue to vote against their own interests.![]()
And you still don't...I did not know that
that can go both ways...a lot of companies got sick of union demands and just packed up and moved overseasLack of education bruh because anybody with some sense of intelligence would know having a union is best for them as workers. They continue to vote against their own interests.![]()
why ya'll keep buying from companies who do this type of shit?

People in the south believe they can strike their own deal and don't need a union to speak for them. Complete and utter ignorance. I worked down south and got hired on at 16 bucks an hour. After 6 months I told them this isn't a living wage in Cali (I commuted to work) but the locals were happy as shit. They got a new Truck and a double wide trailer and they were good. Finally got it bumped up to $22 but that was still shitty.
The opportunity came to switch to international and a day rate and I jumped. I told the white cats I work with they should switch too, but they were comfortable getting fucked. They liked being close to home and didn't want to travel to countries where the police and army are black.
So I was making in 45 days the money it took those bastards 180 days to make.
One of the white boys I was working with got a promotion and is still living in a trailer park. He came to Angola once but simply couldn't adapt cause he's a redneck.
Think flat Earth logic and you will understand the sickness. They love the company but the company doesn't love them.

Trump's tax plan or whatever....it needed to be done but it's equal to trying to put more money into a piggy-bank that's already full to the brim and the piggy-bank being the corp.
Unions are a gift and a curse all in one,for that man or woman that has an issue on the job the union helps them but along with that comes the fuck shit where the union protects people like John who calls in,steals,lie and is headed to a rehab for his second time for the next 6 months,3 of which he will still be getting paid for and his insurance will be picking up the tab on that rehab stay.I've seen this go on....John needs to be fired
Remember Unions didn't really began to benefit blacks until the 1980's after they helped white women in the work force.....like anything it's still flawed.

Alabama and most southern states including the Midwest are right to work states
No unions
It's always cheaper to move manufacturing to third world countries like Alabama
Wisconsin has that right to work law but not here in Illinois. It's some fools on the job that try to bitch about the union but I tell them you don't bitch when they paying us double time on Sundays or triple time on holidays. Man I've seen dudes show up to work drunk and not get fired, why? Because they are protected by the union. I've been at other jobs with no union and they would fire you for any little thing and would get away with it. There are some people who will take advantage of the union, it be those people who never want to come to work.![]()
Huntsville is nice. Alabama is the 6th poorest state in the union. Some counties have a poverty rate of 40% or better and the overall poverty rate is 20%. While calling it third world may a (slight) exaggeration, the concept that these companies employ to decide where their production facilities will be built is the same one that Apple uses.Huntsville has the 2nd largest engineering park in the states. Highest number of engineers / capita. Founder of Discovery Channel is there. 4 star General there at Missile Defense, NASA, Hudson Alpha BioTech
Far from 3rd World fam

LaughsWhy is the south, so against unions??
GM and Ford barely have any auto plants in the South probably because of their anti union environment. People will be driving electrics soon...
That could be true and that could be the opposite. A white lady worked at the honda plant in Alabama. She complained to herself about the conditions and things and only worked to get one pay check. She took that paycheck and bought cleaning supplies, got bonded, and made up some cards that said "ONE CLEAN HOUSE". She passed them out in a well off area and she makes way more than what she made at honda and she is the boss and take her breaks when she gets ready.Most of the workers will NOT be black
My city was looking forward to getting that, but Greensboro's taxes be on some bullshit, so I can understand why they pulled out.
We have honda's aircraft mechanical hub here, so I wonder if that has anything to do with it.
Add in plentiful and cheap land and it's wrap.The South is the preferred location for transplants, the non-union atmosphere, state incentives, developed supplier base. Most OEM's are still heavy on manpower, robots are useful in some operations not all. Toyota is historically a manpower heavy company, they have not relied on automation as much another OEM's put even those are as much as most folks believe. The commercials always show welding and paint robots, they look good in commercials.

By the way, Boeing also pull their multi million dollar contract with our city as well. They had plans on making our airport a major hub for them.
Greensboro lost a lot of potential money.
