    No one will ever convince me that the Union was not the reason my plant closed. Similar plant owned by the company about two hours down the road stayed open. Hint: they were not union.

    The Procter and Gamble plant I work at is non union, but recently there have been pushes for a union.

    My brother in law works at Nummi as a line supervisor.

    I bought a Tacoma because it's locally made and my brother in law knows every inch of the truck.

    Wonder if there's any protests or other negotiations planned when Toyota president Mr Aiko Toyoda comes to congress to testify on Feb 24th.

    I heard some of the manufacturing will be going to Mexico.
