    Richard hit the nail on the head.

    Even if we matched or beat their tax breaks,.. Toyota still would not have come here.

    Unions aside [[and we're also right to work)

    Toyota has most of their parts plants down there. Engine plants, etc.

    Steel comes from there.

    And the cost of living is a fraction. Seriously,.. just property taxes alone are like 1/3. Home and property cost are way less also. So you can employ a labor force for a lot less,... and not have to ship the steel and components very far.

    They would have been stupid to even consider Michigan. If they were even pretending to,.. it would only have been as leverage in their negotiations with Alabama.
