Labor is really a small part of the cost of production. Maybe 8% per unit even at union rates. Carrier is dong this for a few pennies on the dollar. Not only that NONE of the reduced cost savings will be passed on the the consumer. Quality always suffers.

I used to have some sympathy for business moving out the country if they were going broke here but the truth is it appears they are not leaving for that reason. So now I can’t argue with Trump when he says fine leave and then pay a 35% tariff on your product coming back in.
