Well here is what the typical conservative official fears: The VW plant will unionize and soon other automotive plants all over the south will unionize falling like dominos because the employees at other plants will see how good it is at the unionized plant and want it too. Eventually unionized employees will realize their lives are better because of the unions and vote against the conservatives that tried to take their rights to unionize away.

Non answer. How will unionization help the Tennessee economy more than it does now?

Please answer and stop giving us your lazy answer about how conservatives want everybody to be poor.

VW did NOT originally support this, and it is very suspicious that they are now willing to accept it.

I have answered your question a few times. I will try once more with an economic basis:
Generally speaking overall wages in the region should go up which is beneficial to the economy as a whole. People will have more disposable income to spend at other businesses located in the state.
But now answer my question do you want elected officials to hold veto power over businesses decisions?

You would be wrong. Unionization will not only eliminate direct jobs, but will indirectly eliminate other jobs in the community.

California (voted the worst state to do business in, several years in a row) has liberals who veto power over business decisions. Do you agree that California should not be doing that?

I am just trying to nail down the argument your making. For instance you now seem be saying elected officials of any given state should be able to veto any decision a business located in that state makes if they deem than decision harmful to the state economy as a whole.

This concept is generally referred to as "centralized planning" and is a core component of a socialized economy. I would have never pegged you as a closet socialist.

You apparently are not going to answer my question, because I'm guessing you can't.

I will try one more time.

If unionization of the VW plant is so good, then why wouldn't Tennessee officials support it?

They obviously feel that it is going to cost the state revenues.

Okay let me answer it. YOU CAN'T GET ANY MORE REPUBLICAN THAN TENNESSEE. They are totally controlled by Republicans and we all know how republicans feel about unions. God forbid they even whisper union support then they would be considered Rino's. Check out this chart it is quite an eye opener. Like I said you can't get any redder than Tennessee.
