If you look though, most (or all?) of the factories set up by foreign companies are non-union and are set-up in right-to-work states that have much lower labor costs.

IMO, it is interesting how European's look at their own auto industry(ies). Same thing with the Japanese, moreso actually. Perhaps they are more nationalistic (if that is a word) about their industry.
