Ohio also tried to lure them; imagine that they enjoyed spending time with Walker vs time with Kasich...imagine that!

I was born & raised in Wisconsin.

I lived in Kenosha & worked t American Motors & at Snap On.

I went back for my 50th HS reunion 10 years ago & drove around to see old friends & neighbors.

The DAIRY COWS have been heavily replaced by beef cows. I found very few dairy cows & I was driving in rural Wisconsin. The rules for handling manure daily have put them driven the dairy cows away.

Don't forget the $3 billion in tax credits. That didn't hurt either. Link

[The people have spoken]

20 million square feet -- larger than the Pentagon, and equivalent (as Governor Walker noted during the announcement) to 11 Lambeau Fields in area.

Something doesn't add up here. 20 million square feet is 459.1 acres. The American football field, including end zones, is 360 feet long by 160 feet wide, so the area is 57,600 square feet, which is 1.32 acres. 11 of them would be less than 15 acres. Off by a factor of 30.

Well, yeah, you can do a lot with taxpayer money. Just ask Elon Musk.

I have no problem with infrastructure spending. But does that make up all of the $3 bil? If not, what’s the remainder for?
