Its absolutely insane people can sooner think about bullying someone out of their home than granting the property that some totally unused factory is just collecting dust in for this factory.Yes, but not by bullying people to sell their homes to make room for it.
In the end it still boils down to @jonny5's very nearly admitted outlook that, if it's for a Republican project, it's okay but if it's for Biden's Made in America plan, not okay.
Partisan hackery and hypocrisy or, "another day that ends in the letter Y for DP."
Border wall: Seize anything and everything, at gunpoint if necessary. Stiff the landowners and don't finish the project or, if you do, ignore the fact that it's falling apart in less than a year.

PS: Some of you people are getting dictionaries for Christmas.
I want my chips. We bought a vehicle months ago and are still waiting for the heated seat ( won't be used but came with the package) and back up whatnot chip.It wasn't ok for the border wall or the pipeline and it's not ok for a chip plant
I agree.. As I mentioned earlier... Utica... Rochester... Syracuse... All sorts of decent size cities on the Mohawk River with open spaces or empty buildings that they could have chose... Idk why they picked where they did...Yes, but not by bullying people to sell their homes to make room for it.

$650k for a house up there.. That's damn good money...Ha! Just did some searching.
That area has likely never seen some of the prices that most of those properties sold for.
These people were not sent out into the street poor and destitute. Many made a very nice profit - well above what the market would have paid.
The last few hold outs should cash in while they can.
As Micron deal loomed, Onondaga County revved up land-buying spree in Clay (list)
The best prices went to the best negotiators, official said.syracuse.com
Why? Theres plenty of abandoned factory land. Why must someone give up their home for private profit?I can't weigh in unless I have the facts and I don't really HAVE the facts.
But I do know that eminent domain has been a thing since before the American Revolution.
No matter WHO was in the White House, no matter WHO cooked up the plan, no matter WHO greased WHO'S palms, one way or another eminent domain was probably going to play a role.

OH I agree 100% I have NO idea why that site was chosen there is so much empty area in western NY and we do need the jobsI'm not arguing that point.. I use to live upstate... From Amsterdam NY west along the Mohawk River to Buffalo there's a lot of empty places they could have chosen..
I don't know why they picked where they did...
Right?!$650k for a house up there.. That's damn good money...
...but we need qualified workers and accommodations...
And they know how to deal with it. (Syracuse is actually the "snowiest city in America")I'm from upstate NY... So when I read this a couple of months ago I was happy for that area.. They need it, it's great news..
But I admit, I'm a little confused... Look what's going on up there now.. 4-5-6 feet of snow.
I realize Syracuse isn't Buffalo.. But still Syracuse gets a lot of lake effect snow... Not as much.. But they get it..
Crazy...
I agree... But they just upped the snow total south of Buffalo to 70 inches... That's a lot of snow..And they know how to deal with it. (Syracuse is actually the "snowiest city in America")
Wow! That’s crazy. That’s an incredible amount of snow - from one storm/weather system?I agree... But they just upped the snow total south of Buffalo to 70 inches... That's a lot of snow..
Lake Effect snow off of the Great lakesWow! That’s crazy. That’s an incredible amount of snow - from one storm/weather system?
Something to think about.Something else a lot of Americans aren't interested in investing in.
I guess we will be importing another few thousand H-1B engineers because America prefers saddling college kids with forever debts if they want to be engineers while the candidate countries educate and train their people for free or almost free.
Oh, I thought you were saying that one storm was causing 70” of snow. Not for an entire season. Busy day.Lake Effect snow off of the Great lakes
This 70 inches is 2 days... Not the whole year.. This weekend, 70 inches... The winds are blowing across Lake Erie, picking up moisture and dropping it as snow...Oh, I thought you were saying that one storm was causing 70” of snow. Not for an entire season. Busy day.
