Rendell wants job numbers before making Harley deal

How much of an incentive package Pennsylvania plans to eventually offer Harley-Davidson in an effort to keep the company's operations in Springettsbury Township depends on the manufacturer's plans for job creation and retention.

if H/D was in philly , eddie wouldn't ask any questions. he would give them more then asked for. sure the location won't be ..Harley - Davidson of Mexico production plant # ONE , with more operations to follow. HD wants cheap labor , cheap production costs , cheap ,cheaper , cheapest deal possible and then to have HIGHER PRICED M/C's . think about it..i looked at several new hd's . they sure don't get cheaper , do they ???

Here we go again. Using tax payers money to bailout the union. The man making the least bailing out the man that makes the most. Seams to be the thing these days. Tax payers money going to the auto makers, banks, insurance co, ect.

Hope they keep the money away from Manufacturers Association of Southcentral PA, York County Economic Development Corp, York Workforce Investment Board. They always get funding, but spend it for administrative costs, little goes to the folks who need it. Have seen a $200,000 grant get eaten up by the above without assisting anyone.

I hope the Harley employees have their resume's up to date because as far as I am concerned they are about to find out what it means to be a "Baltimore" Colt. I think I can see the Mayflower trucks lining up at the gate. I believe the deal has already been made and it's not in York's favor or Harley would be reassuring the community. Oh well, more union greed that destroyed another company in York. Remember CAT, look where that got them.
