Alabama and Mississippi are good examples of corporate pandering. Filled with refineries and oil production yet on the bottom of the list for wages.
I just think that there has to be middle ground. I don't want KY to be on those lists. Time to buckle up and pay this nationl debt off and this will require everyone paying their fair share.
A lot of manufactoring is going to and has returned to the US because they have found that there is no reliable infastructure in these offshore sites, the political proceesses overseas can be so corrupt they cannot be relied on. They have found that even with a wage of 20¢ an hour does not make up for utility costs, shipping and other factors.
I just wish more people here would start supporting the USA.
