I've no confidence they're going to stay here much longer. Ford, GM and the rest of them are closing up for cheaper labor and so will the foreign automakers eventually. These Free Trade agreements with third world countries is relatively new policy starting with Poppy Bush, their effects are just now beginning to bite us big-time.
In both a psycholgical and economic sense, if a foreign firm spends $1.1 billion in order to build a plant that opened in 2004, then it is showing a greater amount of confidence than you.
