Just wondering if it makes sense for Tesla to make a move on any of the GM plants that will be closing in the next year or given everything they have learned is it cheaper to build from scratch?

And UAW workers.The problem is the locstion— UAW territory.
UAW and Musk would never be able to coexist. You think anyone in those plants were working over Turkey day?Just wondering if it makes sense for Tesla to make a move on any of the GM plants that will be closing in the next year or given everything they have learned is it cheaper to build from scratch?
Just found out that Michigan has "right to work" laws, so there is no requirement to use UAW workers.Never logistics will not work.
Must be near battery factory and calf supply chain.
UAW is another problem, unless workers sign agreement not to unionize.

I keep wanting to say "But, won't the workers realize it's better to have non-union job than no job at all?" Unfortunately, my mind keeps balking .... Also, the unions who are so eager to say "We're here for the workers" would probably be the first ones to kill any sort of deal that would help the workers but exclude the union.I doubt that they will since these plants are in UAW strongholds, Tesla does not want to deal with the union.

There seem to be more downsides for Tesla than upsides.
Also, two of those factories are in Michigan aren't they?
Regardless of corrupt unions they have corrupt state government to cope with, not sure why they need to go there.
I think it would be a public relations nightmare if they were to buy the Hamtramck factory for example and then not staff it with Hamtramck workers...or at least a lot of them. Plus, as has been stated it really doesn't make a lot of sense to have your battery manufacturing so far from your assembly plant.Just found out that Michigan has "right to work" laws, so there is no requirement to use UAW workers.
