Have you ever been to the south? The down votes are because your position is asinine.

It's more likely that southern states are willing to throw huge incentive packages to these manufacturers. Probably not so much on the coasts or the northern states.

Also, unions are less common in the south; those states tend to be right-to-work states.

Finally, you used the word "impoverished", which is ridiculous. But wages are lower in the south so that is probably another reason.
