[QUOTE="bbsam, post: 3279444, member: 22662"] I think you don't hear about the arsenal as much because they hire and layoff on a smaller scale. When they have a project at the arsenal (like up fitting Humvees with steel armor) they may hire 200 people for the team and 30% of those may not be from the area. When Deere ramps up, it's for global demand and they'll hire thousands of people over a couple year period. Everybody knows someone who "got on at Deere". Layoffs at the Arsenal therefore are relatively small news items because the local impact doesn't seem as dire. [/QUOTE]
