Quote:Taiwan electronics manufacturer Foxconn is drastically scaling back a planned $10 billion factory in Wisconsin, confirming its retreat from a project that former U.S. President Donald Trump once called “the eighth wonder of the world.”
Under a deal with the state of Wisconsin announced on Tuesday, Foxconn will reduce its planned investment to $672 million from $10 billion and cut the number of new jobs to 1,454 from 13,000.
The Foxconn-Wisconsin deal was first announced to great fanfare at the White House in July 2017, with Trump boasting of it as an example of how his “America first” agenda could revive U.S. tech manufacturing.
Foxconn mostly abandons $10 billion Wisconsin project touted by Trump
Hmm, what could have possibly changed?

RE: The Eighth Wonder Of The World!
BrokenWingTom here’s a newsflash for especially for you. Winston Churchill once said that Socialism is the equal sharing of miseries. With that thought in mind let’s review.
Democrats do not equal Capitalism. Therefore when our senile President touts good jobs, good Union paying jobs it’s because his mind is stuck in the sixties. But why worry about jobs just keep extending the unemployment so we can all sit on our azzes.
Creating strive and division not jobs is what the Democratic Party excels out.
So, even if you believe Trump was not stellar in job creation he is light years ahead of Democrats.

That is what the Dems want for America. They're all miserable people and want to drag everyone else down

You fools really need a life. And just so you can adjust your clock, I normally start work at 6:30 and finish around 3. I was late getting here this morning as I have an important release going out this week and was doing my actual job. My side job here is continually making you all looks like idiots. Just making sure you are up to speed on my comings and goings since you're so consumed with it.
In the meantime, did ANY of you even bother to read the article I linked? It very clearly details that the company is STILL making an investment in Wisconsin...no, it did not "drop out"...and it explains what the state did to many property holders in anticipation of this for no reason in the end as well as why the company is scaling down the investment. It also lays out that many experts panned this from the start mostly due to the lack of suppliers of components anywhere near Wisconsin. So, bottom line, the scaled down version has little to do with any tax policy in Wisconsin or America, but rather reflects changes in global markets.
Perhaps YOU should stop following YOUR talking points and actually look at reality?
Saps.

So it was Trump lied.....
Can you read, clown show? It was due to changes in global markets.
But yeah, you're a ******* fool if you can't realize the calling this the 8th wonder of the world was just a tad over the top.
Yes. It was Trump lied.
Again, still proving you're incapable of reading...or understanding.
The article actually gives credit to the former president...saying the original deal was due to changes in policy toward China.
Quote:For Foxconn, the investment promise was an opportunity for its charismatic founder and then-chairman, Terry Gou, to build goodwill at a moment when Trump’s trade policies threatened the company’s cash cow: building Apple Inc’s iPhones in China for export to America.

You see, thanks to the Biden* steal we will never know, will we? We need to keep a running tally of jobs and investment lost since the great steal.

The company scaled down due to global market changes, THEY ******* SAID AS MUCH. If anything, this was brought about by the pandemic. If you think Biden changed the global market to cause this in 100 days you're more stupid than first thought.
