Looks like it's finally going to happen. The article is there so that we can get warmed up to the idea to ease the blow when they announce the move out of town. HD will not be in Milwaukee for long.

If they leave Milwaukee, lets at least hope they stay in the United States.

Pictures Wandel & Willie as Laverne & Shirley

1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8 Schlemiel, Schlimazel Harley-Davidson Incorporated.....

Give us any cash, we'll take it
Give an obligation, we'll break it.
We're gonna make our skies turn blue.
Doin' it HD.

Nothin's gonna wise us up now.
Straight ahead, we're on the rocks now.
We're gonna make our skies turn blue.
Doin' it HD.

There are all things we won't try.
Never crossed our mind "It's possible"
This time there's no helping us.
We're gonna screw it.

On your mark, get set and go now.
Last one out, give Milwaukee a final bow.
We're comin' to a state near you.
And you'll do it Our way, yes Our way.
Moco your world is screwed.
And you'll do it Our way, yes Our way
Moco your world is screwed.
Stockholders your boned too.

Here's hoping they move to Mexico! Then they can use the phrase:



Hey were still a (north)American made machine!

>>>>The company got what it wanted, but it's unclear whether the contract will lead to any lingering animosity.

Let me help them . . . from 40 year of business experience . . . sort that one out.

The minute the employees can put the screws them them . . . they will.

They just bent the core of their business over and told them "take it or else".

Idiots.

>>>"I'm not OK with it, but I guess it keeps jobs in Wisconsin," he said. He looked at the ground for a few moments, then sighed and added, "for now."

Clairvoyant.

You know how the next cost reduction will be accomplished.
