I know Honda pays rather well. My cousin works for them and feels they treat him well, good pay, good benefits.

This is exactly why Airbus and Boeing have located their new plants in "right to work" states. It's good that there will be some new jobs in Alabama - but I think it's sad that those jobs won't ever be the equivalent of the good union jobs that are no longer available because of the anti-union legislation of most southern states and an increasing number of other states.

But I was stating we are not talking about Walmart type jobs.

Plenty of good, hardworkin' folks in Alabama - but Airbus is gonna blow a gasket when they deal with the "wish they still owned slaves" branch of the managing class. I worked for a company who made equipment used in aircraft repair & rebuilding, and service work from the Southeast was a trip........

the creep into military areonautics is damaging to this country. China is now reselling defective crap we sent them for recycling now for military use.

it's a mixed bag...some good points, some dumb ones...

Personally, I can't wait for the first "Airbus Exec Arrested and Jailed because he couldn't prove he was in the state legally"-story...You KNOW it's coming...
