God bless the South. I doubt there will ever be another automobile manufacturing plant built north of the Ohio River. And for good reason.

The work ethic of the South has finally prevailed. It's nice knowing the vehicles of tomorrow will be produced [in part] by folks, that actually have to show up to work in order to get paid. None of that "can't touch me" union job destroying mentality down here. And you'll get paid a decent wage. You will not be paid more than your worth. Can't or won't put in a solid 8 hour work day ?........ you're outta here. No candy @ss'd meetings with your Shop Steward. We don't tolerate the organizational hierarchy of a labor union. Indeed my friend, God bless the South.

Re: VW to build in Tennessee

To many people are used to working their butts off on the farms and in the timber woods down here not to know how to work. Plus they work for peanuts of those jobs and VW comes along and pays a living wage the next thing you know you have a factory full of company men if you know what I mean.
