Liberals' Incentives For New Volkswagen Plant: Whaaaaaaat!?!? How much is that per worker?

Let's say 2,000 workers (aggressive for a town like St Thomas) = $216,667 per worker annually for 30 years. Basically an auto union of government employees. 

"...The minister said the plant will cost about $7 billion to build, will have a footprint equal to 350 football fields, and will create thousands of jobs in the region around St. Thomas, the southern Ontario city where it will be located, about two hours northeast of Detroit...."
