Foxconn exec complains about not being able to change Wisconsin plans whenever it wants
Foxconn’s plan to build an LCD factory in Wisconsin — subsidized by up to $4 billion in tax credits, infrastructure investment, and direct cash payments from the state — isn’t going so well. Over the past year, the company has tried to cancel the plan, restarted it at behest of President Trump, and then scaled it down and pushed it back repeatedly, all while buying empty buildings across the state.
All of that is certainly a problem for the Wisconsin taxpayers footing the bill, the homeowners who were moved off their land under eminent domain, and the people dying because the expansion of I-94 to support the project has created a construction “death trap.” But now Foxconn itself would like some sympathy, because it’s not used to anyone…
