How do you suppose things might go if someday they need a variance to expand their operations in an anti-gun state? What they've accomplished exactly is a big to a bunch of anti-gun nanny state moonbats.
Rick, Rick, Rick. As we've just established, it's no such thing. We wouldn't even know they and their 37 jobs were gone if they hadn't held a press conference about it to get you guys to buy more guns.

Reason: rude
What scares me is this-doesn't the media fact-check anymore? PTR has SC talking 140 jobs, while its CEO (at that size, most likely the mailroom clerk, too) writes a letter to Ct warning they may move and stating his headcount at 37.
I understand Fox would not have brought it up if they discovered it (and it took me 10 minutes on google to find the letter), but what about CNN, MSNBC, etc?
Perhaps 140 was the average weight of each employee, but the headcount is 37.

You mean they might add a 38th employee? Well, the first thing PTR would do is call a press conference. Most likely they would expect to get front page coverage on the New York Times, font 16 headline. Ribbon cutting by the governor. Maybe the pope could stop by.
Remember they are just an itty bitty 37 employee firm paying several dollars less than the Ct median mfg wage-per their CEO.
This is not Sikorsky announcing a layoff. They matter.
If 37 relocated employees or new hires are big news to SC, they have bigger problems than Detroit.
Perhaps Haley could take a lesson from Research Triangle-the other Carolina couldn't be bothered with such miniscule firms as this. No wonder the other one has done better. I'd be livid at Haslam if Tn cared about 37 relos/new hires.
Perhaps in backwoods Louisiana, some tiny parish would find it big stuff. Perhaps SC would, too. If that is the case, I fear for their economic future.

Yes, and no way Sikorsky could EVER move to SC. Building high tech helos for the military requires employees with an actual education.
They are moving because CT. no longer supports their industry. Don't try and muddy the waters or confuse the issue.....
Many companies are contemplating a move to more second amendment friendly states..... Magpul to name one. A CO. based company.
no, it's because of costs. We have the same views on firearms, but it's people like yourself that make educated people think that I'm stupid too. stop posting please
