workers in tennessee had a choice. well, in 1980 nissan chose tennessee, a state with almost no auto jobs. today auto assembly plants and suppliers provide one-third of tennessee's manufacturing jobs. tennessee is the home for production of the leaf, nissan's all-electric vehicle, and the batteries that power it. and recently nissan announced that 85% of the cars and trucks it sells in the united states will be made in the united states, making it one of the largest american auto companies. so now the nlrb and unions want to make it illegal for a company that has experienced repeated strikes to move production to a state with a right to work law. what would this mean for the future of american auto jobs? well, jobs would flee overseas as manufacturers look for a competitive environment in which to make and sell their products around the world. it's happened before. david halberstam's 1986 book, "the reckoning," tells a story about the decline of the domestic auto industry. halberstam quotes the president of american mo
