[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 2506891, member: 58386"] What I'm saying is will they be in the US long enough to recoup the concessions that had to be made in order to persuade them to stay? And after Carrier has capitalized to the fullest extent from those concessions why would they then choose to stay if their bottom line dictates a move to Mexico. In other words is Trump buying a future for those employees or is he simply buying them little more time? I was involved in a somewhat similar situation. My employer was bought out by a larger player in the industry. The promise of bringing additional business to the facility I worked at along with a promise to double the number of employees earned them an industrial development and other concessions. Six months after they bought the place it was obvious that they were not committed to the place and within a year we knew what they were there for. In reality what they were after was our existing volume not the other way around. Three hundred people lost their job. [/QUOTE]
