When Saturn built their plant in Spring Hill, Tennessee they got tax breaks for 10 years, that is one reason the plant was built here. Unfortunately the UAW had GM under their thumb with their contracts so GM had offer the jobs to laid off workers from other GM plants first, before opening job offers up to local people...
