A US subsidiary of a Chinese company plans to buy 1 million square feet of space in the Moraine plant and create 800 jobs, but it was unable to do so until it kissed the ring of Ohio's rulers in Columbus.

"An agreement will be signed today in Columbus.
Stu Lichter, founder and principal of Industrial Realty Group, which owns the former General Motors plant complex in Moraine, and Cao Dewang, founder and chairman of Fuyao Glass Industry Group, will be at a signing ceremony, as will Gov. John Kasich and others."

Government only gets in the way of capitalism and commerce. It's not possible for government to aid it.

"That purchase of plant space depends on completion of the company’s own due diligence research into the plant and the state’s own incentives package to Fuyao, JobsOhio said. Tanner could not offer details Thursday about an incentives package."

The incentives will be tax breaks. This shows how government harms our economy, and getting it out of the way boosts it. Naturally that cronyism is secret because everybody wants it.

"Fuyao’s agreement to move to the former General Motors complex at Ohio 741 and Stroop Road is the fruition of months of work by local and state officials — and nearly three years of work by the plant’s owner, redeveloper Industrial Realty Group (IRG)."

Three of being an obstacle. All the company needed was to meet with the owner, but the government gets in the way. More. Naturally, locals are excited. This is great news. I'm just glad government didn't screw it up.
