That $300.000/job you are talking about is being taken from us now,isn`t it better to have it go towards productivity rather than a handout as you seem to suggest.
If I am misunderstanding your basic point,please forgive.
Not at all. It is providing an incentive to one and only one company. If the overall tax rates were lower then more companies would want to be in business there and politicians would not have to buy jobs. You would have a more diverse base of companies and not be dependent on a company that had to be bribed to move there.
Here is a question for you. The minute the subsidies run out and the company is scheduled to pay taxes, what do you think will happen? Will they happily start paying them or will they threaten to move to Virginia?
But that's not written on a stone tablet brought down from the mountain. Better that the taxpayers keep their money, and businesses locate where conditions are best. This raping of the taxpayers must stop.
