The Triangle Business Journal notes that Toyota has selected Mississippi for its new Highlander assembly plant.
Of worth, Ray Tanguay, Vice-President with Toyota in one of the final paragraphs (emphasis added):
“On my visits to northern Mississippi, I have talked with area
companies and observed their work force,” he said. “What I observed
were people who are educated, ethical and friendly with a strong work
ethic.”
Who says that legislative ethics don’t matter in big business? So, what incredible incentives are we likely to see from the Governor and the Department of Commerce to overcome the Black stain on our state? Or maybe those packages just become more embarrassing, the going rate is $1.2 million/job.
Also interesting that Mississippi is more “educated” according to the quote.
