The employees who have no real reason to care though knowing they can get unemployment will just do shoddy jobs on the assembly line and some will intentionally sabotage the product to hurt the company all while looking for a job in the next year.

like i said it would make them look like an asshole

and if they are that immature and stupid, good luck finding another job
you can't go to your next job interview and the potential employer is wondering why you don't come with a letter of recommendation from the place you've been working at the last 10 years
"i see you acted like a toddler; acted unprofessional and threw a fit b/c a company told you that they were re-locating elsewhere over a year in advance and you thought it was ok to act like a dick...yeah you're not hired. next"

Not surprised to hear big business talking points blaming unions, taxes, "regulation" and other BS.

#1 Reason they are moving is because they can make more money overseas. How is someone in the USA compete with child laborer in mexico working for $2hr/16 hours a day? Sure if we get rid of hard vote labor laws, they would still have a job, but who the hell wants a job like that?

Blame NAFTA/TPP and other trade agreements. Trade is good when its level playing field. It should not be race to the bottom, but that is what you get when the government is owned and run for the benefit of monied interests.

Dude. Mexico is not "overseas".

Oh shock, this is just another Obama Administration success story:


Carrier Corp. announced this week that it plans to shutter its Indianapolis manufacturing facility, laying off 1,400 workers and moving operations to Mexico.

Yet less than three years ago, the company received a $5.1 million stimulus-funded tax credit from the Department of Energy — for the sole purpose of creating and maintaining green jobs in the United States.

“In this instance, Carrier Corp. is betraying the program’s aim of keeping green jobs in the United States,” says Philip Mattera, research director at Good Jobs First, a nonprofit tracking subsidies.

The shuttering of the Carrier facility is yet another failure in the Obama administration’s attempts to use stimulus cash to prop up domestic green manufacturing.

The $2.3 billion Advanced Manufacturing Tax Credit Program, more wonkily known as the 48C program, provided a 30 percent tax credit for companies that invested in green manufacturing facilities in the United States.

Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz then claimed that the tax credits would “create new jobs and supply more clean-energy projects in the United States and abroad with equipment made in America.” And Senator Joe Donnelly (D., Ind.) said, “The tax credits will help these companies invest further in more good-paying manufacturing jobs right here in Indiana.”

Carrier, a subsidiary of United Technologies Corporation, won the $5.1 million award in 2013 after vowing to expand production of energy-efficient gas furnaces at its Indianapolis facility.

“Now, they’re going to build them in Mexico instead of building them here,” says Chuck Jones, the president of Indianapolis’s United Steelworkers Local 1999. “It’s a damn shame all the way around. . . . They blind-sided us — 1,400 people and their families are going to be disrupted. . . . There will be no more jobs in Indianapolis.”



Why it is almost as if Democrats are economic illiterates or something.

"Green jobs!"

LMFAO
