This is a HUGE get for the already-hurting South Bend area. But UAW Local 5 is already threatening to cause problems, since the Alabama Benz plant is non-Union, and the UAW wants it.

AM General is the same plant the Hummer and the Civilian Hummer were built in.

Since Hummer production ended, they have barely been keeping the plant open by making a handful of Handicapped vans.

Sounds as if almost all of the Benz's built here will go directly to China and Asia.

China got the Hummer and all we got was the Benz.

Why not build them in China where you can pay the workers $1 a day?

Will this be an non-union plant tcr?

This is a feather in the cap of Gov. Pence should he go forward in a bid for POTUS.

Again, Indiana kicks Michigan to the curb and takes Jobs from them, even with Michigan's new right to work. I can't blame them for utilizing an existing plant and expertise, however such opportunities in Michigan are probably competitors plants and that is a no go.

Workers can buy houses there for like $50.

Indiana’s Pence should tell the UAW of to screw up this agreement with Mercedes and AMGeneral. I would then (if I was Pence) ask for a right to work law.
