This is great news for Alabama! No doubt production will have to be expanded at our Mercedes plants here to make up for the striking (perhaps soon to be fired) German workers. 12 Legislative Days Left Until The AWB Expires

Many of the German/French Pharmaceutical companies have been moving research and production out of their socialist countries to America for years.
About 5 years ago, a VP of a company from both France and Germany explained that he could hire great chemists with proven track records for the same salary that an arrogant unproven socialist demanded in France or Germany. He could give better than average benefits and time off than most Americans got to his American employees. They appreciated generous vacation time and a week off at Christmas, where as the snot nosed euro socialists (his words),demanded more time off for everything.
He was German, and when he finished he asked his fellow VP a French Doctor, how he felt. The French Doctor said, "Oui!". Both men had relocated their families and applied for American citizenship.
This happened during a lunch with 5 of us who had been hired as consultants. We were stunned by how they felt. Now I know why they felt that way about the snot nosed Euro's who got great salaries and packages from their company and wanted more with less work.
that plant will expand to make the new M Class (currently made there) in both a normal and long wheelbase chassis. and they will also make the new G wagon there. remember, the US has an import tariff on light trucks. the US is by far the largest market for their SUVs anyway.
