If the Nissan workers in Canton, MS want a union, Nissan should start moving those jobs to other states.

If you had seen how truly gigantic that plant is, you’d know that it’s not so easy to “move” the jobs. The building is about half a mile long. Almost took my breath away when I caught a glimpse.

Therefore, even though Nissan may never want to expand the plant and create more jobs there, the plant is such a massive investment that I doubt the shareholders or the board of directors would approve a shut-down — and maybe would not approve even a major cut-back of the plant’s output.

On the other hand, a pro-union vote would probably dictate that when various auto manufacturers are searching for other plant sites across the American South, they will want to avoid the black-majority cotton-belt counties.
