I think that it is mainly tax breaks and land that is sitting fallow. A break on taxes that they would never get without Kia moving there and 2600 jobs that they wouldn't have. Those workers will be paying taxes and spending money in the area. I wonder if ENRONs' accountants wrote that piece?

The town and the State is going to invest $400 MILLION DOLLARS!!!!! towards Kia moving to town. It kind of makes what the British goverment invested in JZD look like a home loan!!!!!! Even accounting for inflation over 25 years we are talking about a State, not even a COUNTRY!! It works out,they say, to $136,000 per job!!!!!
