Foxconn planning $7 Billion plant and 50,000 US jobs

But, muh vagina.

Foxconn, the world's largest contract electronics maker, is considering setting up a display-making plant in the United States in an investment that would exceed $7 billion, company chairman and chief executive Terry Gou said on Sunday. The plans come after U.S. President Donald Trump pledged to put "America First" in his inauguration speech on Friday, prompting Gou to warn about the rise of protectionism and a trend for politics to underpin economic development.
quote:
Gou said that Foxconn, formally known as Hon Hai Precision Industry Co <2317.TW>, had been considering such a move for years but the issue came up when Foxconn business partner Masayoshi Son, head of Japan's SoftBank Group Corp <9984.T>, talked to Gou before a December meeting Son had with Trump.
quote:
Gou said he told Son that the United States has no panel-making industry but it is the second-largest market for televisions. An investment for a display plant would exceed $7 billion and could create about 30,000-50,000 jobs, Gou told Son.
But, muh vagina.

Good. Bring back those factory jobs to the U.S. so those run down rust belt towns with boarded up windows can once shine again.

Wasn't the left telling us that companies were going to pay their fair share and still not leave?
How did all these companies slip away?

I am considering starting a new company too. Might employ 50m people in North Dakota. Can we add that to the Trump tally or do I need to start a new thread first?

My guess would be that Harrisburg and/or Allentown, PA are being considered. That's where they currently exist today.
Foxconn has existing cooperation and operations in Pennsylvania, which is a state Foxconn would prioritize, depending on land, water, power, infrastructure and other investment conditions, he said.
