How about we stop subsidies to special interest groups who can afford expensive lobbyists?
This is one of the many things wrong with the tax code. It favors some at the expense of the middle class.

“Incentives” for Hollywood have been nothing but a loser for the people here in Michigan.

....California's tax incentive program for the film and television industry currently stands at $100 million annually while New York's program is at $420 million. Some states don't even have a cap. What this means is that Hollywood is fleeing Tinsletown to film out of state, which is costing California billions of dollars and tens of thousands of jobs. It's been estimated that the state lost $9.6 billion in economic output and 47,600 jobs due to the film industry leaving the state. In 2013 alone, a full 75% of big budget motion pictures were filmed outside of California. The reason why? It's cheaper to film elsewhere. Just another unionized industry pricing itself out of business.

Kevin Spacey was in Annapolis Maryland on Friday seeing about tax credits for House of Cards. I am sure the show is going to get them.

Hey Hollywood, if you ain’t 1 percenters there ain’t no such thing. To quote Nancy Pelosi “embrace the suck”

“Yesterday, Kevin Spacey met with Maryland lawmakers to lobby for more funds to keep filming House of Cards within the state.”
It would be cheaper to cough up about 40 bucks to buy a copy of the original (and superior, IMHO) British miniseries.

No, they are losing money due to poor production and worse providing value to their audiences.
