Predictably, $3 billion is simply a negotiated discount on fees in return for Foxconn choosing Wisconsin over a state not willing to discount fees.

- throwawayjava 9y agoI understand what you're saying, but I think you're wrong, for two reasons. 1. There's a reason that foxconn wants to manufacture in the USA, and there's a reason they're courting states in the great lakes region. Resolving the Prisoner's dilemma becomes much easier when there are ~3 states with viable sites as opposed to 50. 2. See guelo's comment. Your point is well-taken in general, but in this particular case, IMO, it really is a stupid giveaway.
