this would really suck. Good ol' GM. Never invests a nickel, but will take any tax break (take the money and run).

In my native province of Quebec, GM took billions of dollars of tax breaks/incentives/gifts from the Quebec gov't (trying to build an auto industry in the province), over several decades. Of course, they shut the plant after all, even though it was one of the most productive.

This city is turning into Flint.
