Rural Michigan communities revolt over plans to build Chinese-owned factories nearby: 'It's disgusting'
Fox News
Members of two rural Michigan communities are pushing back on plans by a Chinese-owned company to build an electric vehicle battery plant in the area over national security concerns.
"The thing that drives some the most crazy about this is that this is a Chinese-owned company. A Chinese-owned company is a communist company. Why would you bring a communist company to Big Rapids, Michigan, when we have troops mobilizing right now to fight China?" one resident, who identified himself as an Iraq War veteran, told the town's board members.

"Why would we invite the enemy to come spy on us? All the things on here are bad, but the thing that drives me the most nuts is that it is our enemy, not the Chinese people. I have nothing against the Chinese people because they suffer under the same communism that you all are trying to bring here. It's disgusting."
