“Using OUR money!”
We gave it to them in exchange for products we wanted (or thought we wanted) more than things made here in the USA. We have only ourselves to “blame” if you think that’s the appropriate word.
So that’s why NIMBYs used their government incomes in so many local governments in rural areas to shut down small sawmills.
Of course those at the bottom will need to be happy with their rice bowls and bicycles.
Will the plant be run like the Apple plant in China with nets to stop suicides and no one smiling.

In China if they do not meet their quota they are then assigned to the spare parts division. They become spare parts for other humans. Will this also happen in Alabama?
Publix - you lucky dog. In DC we have politically correct Safeways or Giant or Whole Foods. Use the last a lot, but not for what are supposed to be cheap bulk items.

I know your pain. I lived in the DC area for four years. Safeway was the worst. Publix is employee-owned so everyone working there has a direct interest in the success of the company.
This is one reason we need to keep energy prices low. Paper mills are water and power hogs. These can’t be run on windmill power.
“..I do and get paid very handsomely. Fly first class, stay in 5 star hotels. No requirement to use chop sticks...”
Your situation is rare. I did work for one, and it was horrible. They trusted NOBODY that was not Chinese, were cheap to an extreme, were rude, and ran a ruler/slave work environment, and lied to their employees. I did not last long there.
Now they can have all that US debt they own printed on their own paper. Synergy!
Quint: "Sometimes that tree, he looks right into you. Right into your eyes. You know the thing about a tree, he's got... lifeless knotholes, black knotholes, like a doll's knothole. When he falls at ya, doesn't seem to be livin'. Until he falls on ya and those black knotholes roll over white. And then, ah... then you hear that terrible high pitch screamin' and the forest turns red and in spite of all the poundin' and the hollerin' they all come in and rip you to pieces."
