Oh, and a fourth one: Vote --if you have not done so already!
For more than a year, Talgo CEO Antonio Perez has held his tongue as
detractors dumped on his company and its trains, until finally he could
take no more. Perez cannot believe the State of Wisconsin has chosen to
terminate two contracts it signed with Talgo nearly three years ago. His
company has put almost three years of work into a project to build and
maintain trains in a warehouse in Milwaukee’s 30th Street Corridor, the
long-dormant industrial area Gov. Scott Walker has pledged to help
revive with a new, $100 million dollar plan. Yet his administration will
kill the only viable company now operating there, Talgo.
“What message does this send to other businesses?” Perez asks. “They
should be careful of doing business here because Gov Walker does not
keep his word. It’s like we’re talking about a Third World country,
where people don’t have respect for their contracts.”
