Emails show the DeSantis administration dangled a big incentive package in front of rifle-maker Remington Firearms. But Remington's top executive worried Florida couldn't train qualified workers.
Good f**king grief, we HAVE to vote these despicable, dangerous fascists out of power. Funny how the party that is so vocally vehement about protecting children’s lives & welfare has state officials who are fighting & bending over backwards to be the one who gets the big gun factory when guns are the leading cause of death for American children
Haha, after reading more of the article I’d like to revise my comment to add that Desantis is also a rube for getting played by Remington and pitted against neighboring state, Georgia. Thank you, Mr. Garcia, for this fun and informative read!
All I can is, Desantis was offering chump change for Remington to move to Swamp Country. And all the argle-bargle about a trained workforce in Florida beating down their door was thinly-veiled code for, “thanks for playing, but y’all are a bunch of dumb rednecks.”

They are correct, Florida does not have the people it takes to make Remington a successful factory. Much better off in Ga.
