1.2 billion divided by 1,200 jobs is 1 million per job.

So thats how government creates jobs!

The article/plant has nothing to do with nanotechnology. This is a 300mm chip plant, similar to the one IBM has somewhere in the NE.

The infrastructure costs money to establish - and doing so will create cascades of more jobs.

The nanotech facility is developing the next generation technology for the satellite facilities of AMD and other NT business to take advantage of. They do go hand-in-hand. DayStar is a good example of this. Silicone Specialties is also close by.

As if that's a bad thing?



If it blinds one to the true issues at hand, it is. The issues that are important to many of us. Hillary is not the story here.

Research and Development ever hear of that?

And you cannot research the EXCERPTED" article any further than what is at the top of the page? Do your research as I am here to inform you,it does.

AMD's prospective fabrication plant is tagged for a 200-acre site at the Luther Forest Technology Campus, the chip-maker said on Friday. AMD envisions a 1.2 million square-foot facility, which would likely produce microprocessors based on 32-nanometer manufacturing technology. The company, however, has to first deliver its chips based on 45-nanometer manufacturing technology, which it expects to introduce in mid-2008.

But then you could be Intel and open your newest 65-nanometer plant in Ireland (see story)!

Some FReepers complain when business (also benefits service related entraphrenuers) builds within the US and almost always the first to complain when it leaves for overseas.

Hillary is not the story. Hillary is only made "the story" here.

That $300.000/job you are talking about is being taken from us now

But that's not written on a stone tablet brought down from the mountain. Better that the taxpayers keep their money, and businesses locate where conditions are best. This raping of the taxpayers must stop.

I would think the cheap power at Niagara Falls played a big part.

Why do I know she'll find some way to claim credit!



The promise she made for New York is more jobs. She sees more jobs coming to New York so that is a positive for her. That is why she is taking credit. I don't know if she deserves it or not, but she seems to think she does. I can't stand her, but she is the one who promised jobs and now there seems to be jobs coming to New York.
