I lived in Georgia. My sister and sister-in-law both live in Georgia. My wife’s family is from Virginia...Albermarle Country near Charlottesville. I have spent many enjoyable weeks at Fairfield Glade (timeshare resort) and Sapphire valley (timeshare resort). I’ve been to Dollywood and all the other attractions in this area. I went to the aquarium in Tennessee-excellent attraction.
Nope, I’ve been all over the South including other southern states. I won’t spend leisure dollars in states that have -best case scenario-representatives and not the citizens who hate the Mid West and Michigan in particular with Ohio following a close second. I also won’t buy cars from transplant nation even if the big three goes away.
The UAW is nothing more than an extortionist organization and will fail under it’s own weight. If they hold strong, they will be unemployed. A new contract ordered by the bankruptcy court will save the jobs and make the future a little brighter for the manufacturing base.
You obviously don’t believe the high costs and outlandish work rules placed on these companies by your beloved UAW has anything to do with the economic conditions the Big 3 face.
Feel free to enjoy the dying state of Michigan. Many will follow the opposite of your lead by not buying UAW produced cars and staying away from Michigan businesses.
