Remember, these plants are opening up in the middle of *nowhere* in these states. The population is decidedly rural and many people in the area drop out at the 6th grade or earlier.

They would have the same difficulty if they set up in downtown Detroit. The local workforce *is* illiterate.

Bwhaahahaha. It's the cities where the schools have the largest dropout rates. Everyone and their brother are fleeing the large metroplexes and heading to suburbia and the country side.

You are not allowed to drop out of school in the sixth grade anywhere that I know of. Of course with 40 years of liberal control of the schools what does anyone expect. I used to volunteer to read stories to grade school children in Nashville, Tn. and saw kids with blatant developmental problems stuck in the classes with bright children. Many of them were disruptive any agressive. When I went to school the special ed kids had their own classes.
