Foxconn in Wisconsin is the one people love to mention.

AFAIK - they got $3B in FUTURE benefits - of which none came to fruition.

Foxconn delivered nothing and also got almost nothing (~1% of that $3B).

Yeah - it was a dumb political stunt - and it unfortunately worked for the time. But it wasn't the massive financial disaster people think it was.
