If natural gas is available that is obviously the way to go. If natural gas is not available than the best way to go, but not the cheapest upfront, is what I posted in post 27.
Well, nobody, and certainly not I said you didn’t have the right to buy or not buy anything for any reason you wish. Completely up to you.
I was pointing out the pure thuggishness of our protectionist poster.
As for B&J, I wouldn’t buy any of their products when the stupid little commies owned it and I still won’t.
Bernie hates Carrier and all businesses. He’s an idiotic commie moron.
The vacuous little dope actually thinks that Americans have too many choices of deodorants. That’s the level of sophistication of what passes for his economic “thinking.”
And, no, Carrier didn’t put 1400 people on unemployment. At any given time there are over 5 million open jobs in the US. See the DoL JOLTS (Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey) numbers. Now, that’s a lot less than would exist if we didn’t have jug-ears in the White House, but this economy has survived even his idiocy.
Most of the laid-off with a brain will be employed elsewhere in short order. In any case, no job, absent an employment contract comes with any guarantee of longevity.
It ain’t Carrier’s job to worry about anything else other than maximizing their bottom line by making products people want to buy at the lowest possible cost. They do anything else and they will end up in bankruptcy, the opinions of do-gooders and hand-wringers notwithstanding.
And I and everyone else, including Carrier shareholders can complain all we want about the stupidity of people who think socialism is a good idea, layoffs by Carrier or anyone else notwithstanding.
have the CEO go to a trump rally to make an announcement reversing the decision.
(or if he (or she) is a democrat they can go to a Hillary rally for a good barking)
Is this not a case where lower corporate (and personal taxes) are the way to keep business in the USA.
GM products have a lower quality REPUTATION because of their labor costs forcing fewer amenities on their vehicles.
remember eastern airlines?
My wife and I both drive Fords, but no more. And GM....Gubmint Motors is building schlock junk. Guess I’ll go to Honda or Toyota next time. Ford wants to build crappy stuff in Mexico; they can sell their crappy stuff in Mexico, too.
my next pickup will be a Toyota Tundra
