In theory, but
> ...freed from making candybars and can move to more productive uses of our people
relies on the presumption that there is sufficient local demand for laborers (who may not necessarily have any experience that doesn't involve the manufacture or distribution of chocolate) in positions of increased productivity.
The decaying socioeconomic situation for wide swaths of the rural US suggests that this was not the case.
- bluGill 6y agoHalf you are stateing what I said... US rural areas face a very different issue: high wages relative to other countries (shared with cities), but with the population density advantages of cities. I don't need to look to tell you Hersey didn't move to a rural area of mexico they moved to a city of some sort. They don't need the largest city, but a small town cannot supply their labor needs.
