Most people in the world would not agree with this. Most people in the USA don't even agree with this. LOL.
Shows how little you know. Atlanta is considered an "Alpha -" city, along with San Francisco, Washington D.C., Miami, and Boston.
Charlotte is a Gam*ma+ city, along with Baltimore, St. Louis, Phoenix, and Tampa. Raleigh is a Gamma city, along with San Jose, Cincinnati, and Milwaukee.
I see what you did.
I'm not going to play a game of semantics or clip one sentence from your posts & leave it dangling out of context.
Your intent at 2:40 pm Wednesday is quite clear.
I'm done here.

Not really. It's notable that you missed that I said that I am glad they decided to move to ATL rather than to stay in NJ. IMO, what's good for GA is also good for NC.

Whats good for NC is whats good for NC. No good is gained when we do not get the jobs or tax revenue.

Quite a myopic viewpoint.
We are much more likely to get symbiotic business that does business with MB in GA, than one in NJ. There, for example, about 75,000 people working in the automobile manufacturing and research business in the Charlotte metro. Furthermore, such growth also pushes forward the justification for GA to join NC in a high speed rail link.
I dunno, but I am not sure I want NC to be amongst the new auto manufacturing states. Alabama, Tennessee, Georgia, Mississippi, and South Carolina all have conditions that lure these manufacturers there, but many of those Deep South conditions are not exactly something NC should aspire for. Low wage states without organized labor and regulations will attract certain types of industry, but it seems like a race to the bottom to me.
Production associates in SC making 80k + yearly ( more if you want the overtime), healthcare, pension, 401k, new BMW every year, 4 weeks paid vacation, clothing/shoe allowance, several thousand dollars for bonuses ........I'm not sure what you're talking about and not interested in paying any union dues.
