I can’t believe he said that. Well, wrote that. I’m reading another reader’s comment to an article about quality in manufacturing. The reader says, “We shouldn’t drag politics into this!” Really?

First of all, how can you drag something into where it already is? Somebody tell me one facet of manufacturing that regulation or taxation does not affect. Heavily.

Where to locate? Property tax and permits.
What material to use? Better take EPA regulations into account.
Workforce? Enough said.
