The town of West Point, Georgia (pop. 3500), is breathing an economic sigh of relief after Kia's announcment they will open a new plant there by the end of the year, bringing an estimated 20,000 jobs to the area (details).

"They also locked in about $400 million in tax breaks and other economic incentives." I am surprised it is not a lot more. I'd imagine with a town of that size $400 mil will go a long way. -------------------- 2002 GT automatic with ABS | TCS | Moonroof
