How far we've come from the promised 13,000 jobs.

A shame this happened. I had a bad feeling when they announced the deal all those years ago. I hope Intel doesn't do the same to Ohio.

My theory is that Foxconn is actually a real estate speculation company. Making electronics is just a cover.

Kind of like how Tesla and other Elmo companies are actually just energy subsidy scams? Given the country of origin of the company, being in real estate would make sense.
