Seen it happen here first hand. Unfortunately, as the unions die, so do the manufacturing towns they support. This was a Delco, Guide Lamp, GM Powertrain headquarter town for decades. Now, there is only a satellite warehousing facility for Delco Remy and hundreds of thousands of square feet of empty manufacturing facilities. The new rust belt.
Sounds like a ready-made opportunity for creative people without the union-goon attitude.
