Yes, they were a union shop.

Plus, the company cites “new regulatory requirements”, i.e. government regulations.

Plus, I’m sure they loved the labor cost savings.

To me this is the unfortunate side of the Trump campaign. He has wrongly directly GOP voter ire from government regulation regulating jobs out of existence in the US to trade. People freely buying and selling does not cost jobs, government regulation of business does. But Trump in some ways seems the crony capitalist and they love and seek protection.

When asked the CEO of Carrier could not come up with any regulations or taxes that spurred their move to Mexico.

I am still waiting for the announcement from Carrier Corp of across the board price reductions due to lowered labor casts. Still waiting to hear form Nabisco too.
