Once again, our businessman Governor has shown he can’t close a big deal.
Despite being enticed by a $700-million bribe/incentive package that was put together at the last second by Oklahoma lawmakers and Governor Kevin Stitt, Volkswagen announced it has chosen a site in Ontario, Canada to be the home for its big and fancy North American EV battery factory.
The snub comes just eight months after Oklahoma suffered a similar fate when Pansonic picked Kansas to be the home of its battery mega-factory, despite Stitt and Co. putting together their own cushy package.
