Reviews

Karen ，

This book details the huge investment which would create many good blue collar jobs promised by Foxconn， in return for massive incentives from Wisconsin governments。 The promises were never kept and the entire project collapsed。 Tabak is especially good at tracing who benefited financially from this and who lost。 This is also a warning to state and local governments who are all too willing to lavish tax dollars on corporations in return for a promise of jobs。
