saying it will make ~3000 new jobs in the area. sure, right when the plant opens they'll employ that many people. but we all know the ultimate end-goal of factories is to fully automate. so we're gonna give a gigantic, multi-national corporation a metric fuckton (scientific amount) of money via tax deductions, all in the name of creating 3000 jobs that will last, what, a couple of years? we'll still be giving Foxconn tax breaks even after they've automated away all those jobs.

how is this good for anyone except Foxconn executives and their shareholders? am i missing something here?
