> then they will relocate sections of the factory gradually In the late 1930s, Larry Page's grandfather participated in a sit down strike that helped consolidate the UAW. The grandfather auto worker made a decent union wage living and sent his son to college. The son became a professor, and his son founded Google and became a billionaire. Meanwhile the textile mills in the Carolinas were mostly unorganized, and the post-WWII drive to organize them was defeated. And - the Carolinas still have a thriving textile industry today. No. The mills have almost all shut down and moved elsewhere. The industrial buildings serve as hipster like places for restaurants, apartments, boutiques etc. The southern textile workers never got their payday, they worked in the mills and the mills shut down.
