I hope Trump cuts the ribbon on the new factory.
Wow! Just wow! Great news!
I’m a little confused here. I read through the article, but didn’t find any reference to a statement by Foxcomm that had anything to do with Pennsylvania. How did the author come up with that?
Me, too. PA hasn’t won anything yet. And if the state has to give away the store to get a deal, I’d call that a Pyrrhic victory.

It won’t be in Philly, that’s for sure. That would be like relocating from one communist run location to another.
The article references a Bloomberg report, and the Bloomberg report says nothing about Pennsylvania. But the Bloomberg report also cites a Nikkei Asian Review report, and in that report it's mentioned that a Pennsylvania trade representative attended the Foxconn event.
I hope Pennsylvania could get such a deal, but I’m wondering why Foxxconn would locate a plant in Pennsylvania instead of, say, Texas or Indiana.
PA would be a good choice, just from the labor aspect.
The old Rust Belt could become the Silicon Shield......................
Well, one things for sure, they’ll not need nets around the building to catch workers jumping to their deaths because of exhaustion/anxiety.
If it lands in PA consider it remaining a red state for a long time...
Truth !
(would only add: location sh!thole)

Because PAlabama is every bit as red as TX or IN.

I might be able to be a little optimistic about Pittsburgh but on second thought, with those liberal colleges surrounding that city, I changed my mind.
Philly is probably a lost cause.
The rest of PA are the ones that will counter the liberalism of these two biggies.
Pennsylvania's top corporate income tax rate of 9.99% is one of the highest in the U.S. -- higher even than Marxist sh!t-holes like California (8.84%), Massachusetts (8.00%) and and New York (6.5%).
Pennsylvania didn't just lose all those industries over the years because companies fled to foreign countries. They lost them because companies fled to other U.S. states. The government of Pennsylvania chased all of those jobs away.
