So are you saying EADS doesn't care about its long term business in the U.S., and was just looking to blow its wad on this one deal? BMW, Mercedes, et. al. weren't looking to break into a new market by promising to create jobs in said market, so none of the tenants of your argument apply...your data appears to be inappropriate.
P. S. - I just noticed your last post. Now those may be valid arguments. But notice, Boeing's been resorting to such practices too. What is it doing assembling the 787 in South (North?) Carolina if it has under used capacity in Washington and Kansas? Why is Beechcraft getting to keep their employees state income tax (instead of giving it to Kansas)? To me, I'm seeing less and less difference in foreign companies and domestic ones.
