I’m reserving judgement until we see exactly what the announced but unspecified economic incentives from Indiana for Carrier will cost - these sorts of arrangements have a nasty habit of turning into a situation where state or local government “buys” job security at a very high cost per job in the form of tax breaks or the like, and then the employer never creates the promised jobs, or “discovers” a few years later that the plant has to be closed anyway.
Foe example, here in Illinois:

Oh so now “Conservatoires” are against tax cuts. Sheesh. GloBULLism is a disease.
