With comments like ”There’s a whole lot of people out there scrambling to try and come up with a reason not to like this, They can go suck lemons. The rest of us are going to cheer and figure out how we are going to get this thing going forward.” It's pretty clear what happened. Walker isn't a fan of thing like 'reason' and 'numbers' and 'facts' and instead likes to commit billions of others peoples money based on his faith that things will work out if he just wants it enough.
But what confuses me is Foxconn changing what they said they would do. When they announced that instead of building the 10.5 plant they had committed to building, they were going to build a Gen 6 plant, why didn't the state of Wisconsin say "OK, that's great, give back every last penny of money you have ever received from us immediately, and then we will begin discussions on a different deal since you have broken the contract on the first one?" Instead they just keep giving money to Foxconn no matter what they do? Just how many shares of Foxconn did Walker and his family and friends get for this?
