I hope they don't raid the Foxconn megafactory in Wisconsin, it'll really deter foreign investment in US manufacturing.

- jauntywundrkind 1y agoSarcastic post? After a much much ballyhoooed announcement during Trump1, and many many tax incentives, it still seems like there's not much here. https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/what-happened-to-foxconn-a-look-at-the-1-2-billion-spent-and-where-it-all-went/3759518/ https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/what-happened-to-foxco... https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38518446 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38518446 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37392169 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37392169 But yes, raiding that sure would be another massive hit, further helping destroy America's reputation & isolating us from the world. Which based on all evidence & actions, is what this administration is doing: destroying the US empire's soft power as fast as possible. With Gabbard working basically for the opposition to make sure foreign influence campaigns & meddling to have free reign to run amock as they please, as well.
- cosmicgadget 1y agoComment was meant honestly (deterring onshoring), but yes I was being sarcastic about the Foxconn thing, for the purposes of highlighting how honest/effective these efforts have been.
