"A Losing Proposition"

Dear County Board,
In life there are Winners and Losers.
We're betting you lose.
Good luck with your throw of the dice.

RACINE COUNTY — Twenty-four hours after approval by Village of Mount Pleasant, the Racine County Board on Tuesday also voted unanimously to approve the development agreement between the village, county and Foxconn Technology Group.
A special signing ceremony with village, county and Foxconn officials is expected to be held on Friday.

Cindy and I bet that the coming legal challenges, Impeach Walker movement,  inevitable set-backs, delays, logistic problems, bureaucratic incompetence,  and any major negative changes in the US Economy, such as if the price of energy increases substantially,or energy supplies falter, markets crash, or Trumps war in the Middle East, Africa, and with North Korea/China, will kill the Foxconn deal.
Pax Americana.
At best - phase one will prove to be a disaster - and phases 2 and 3 will never happen. Employee turnover, absenteeism, low productivity, incompetence, excessive overtime, and an inability to compete in the Global Market will force Foxconn to abandon MTP.
The challenge is for you to prove us wrong - and I believe you will fail. Your plan B will be - Bankruptcy! You're starting out in negative territory with less than no eggs in your basket - but you've already counted your Roosters and Hens....
Thomas Cole and The Course of Empire:

Good luck.

Sincerely,

Tim & Cindy

The news is all rosy for now -

But no eggs are in the basket -

But we'll all feast like Kings TOMORROW.

'cause if you build it - they will come.

I'll let Mr. Hand tell you what the public officials in Wisconsin are on!
