Great, finally some Sodium batteries that are not made in China.

Idk, sounds like another FoxConn lie to siphon off public funds and underdeliver.

Put up a shack, hire 10 people, pocket the remaining money, pay it to yourself in dividends and stock buybacks. Huzzah!

Any evidence to that effect, or is this just doomerism?

It's called healthy skepticism and it saves lives. By preparing for all worst case outcomes we can help prevent them all.

It’s called healthy skepticism

Skepticism is healthy when you're actually making a decision and you decide you need more information.

By preparing for all worst case outcomes

Are you actually making any preparations or are you just throwing out cynical assertions based on bad vibes?

If I had to make a decisions in this exact circumstance I sure as fuck wouldn't write Natron a blank check for the state treasury. Yeah, I'm saying I want more information before I endorse this.

So doomerism it is then...

Immediately assuming that every potentially good thing that happens is actually fraud, without evidence, is just paranoia.

Saying that it is a fraud publicly, without evidence, is just disinformation.

Believing things without evidence isn't "healthy skepticism", it's just credulity. Don't be a rube.

"It’s facilitated in part by a Job Development Investment Grant from the North Carolina Department of Commerce, which gives cash grants directly to a company when it creates jobs and invests in the state."

I wonder if this makes it kind of like, although not equivalent to, a project labor agreement. I know North Carolina is a right to work state.

It would be nice for there to be union presence on a job this large. However small the chances of that may be.
