What they should have done is shutdown the old plant, sell whatever they could and build a new modernize plant in lets say around the Hunts Point area. With tax breaks and all....they could have done it.

Tax breaks only do so much, and they have to be supported by effectively higher taxes on others.

Yadkinville, NC can match whatever tax breaks NYC gives, and labor there is much cheaper and non-union.

Yea...the cost of living is cheaper....but not by much.

Look it up before speculating.

NC just like NY has to scramble with state budget costs.

We're much bigger spenders. And we lose a lot of federal tax dollars to welfare states.
