Ohio leaders fuming over NCR move to Ga.
The AJC ^ | 2 June 09 | THOMAS GNAU

Posted on 06/03/2009 7:32:53 AM PDT by Nat Turner

“NCR makes ATMs,” Ohio Lt. Gov. Lee Fisher said Tuesday. “And to me this is equivalent to going to your ATM and finding out that your bank that you and your family have banked with for 125 years has, without even talking to you, transferred all your funds to another company.”

not to worry, I’m sure that Obama is planning to jack up their Fed taxes in Georgia so that he can spread the wealth back to Ohio (take that, Joe the Plumber!)

Relocation is a significant "pre-John Galt" option available to businesses whose owners are tired of being milked like an old Holstein. Some states (New York, for example) have already taken to penalizing companies for moving to more friendly business climes, either by punitive taxation or threat of lawsuit.

In the meantime, the same liberal-dominated states refuse to control their spending, raising taxes in discriminatory fashion on achievers and risk-takers, many of whom will in time refuse to do either, any more.

From the way you are describing fellow Buckeyes, it sounds to me like Ohio is turning into....MICHIGAN! (talk about a horror plot for the Late-Late Show!)

You mean labeling corporations as “evil” isn’t a good idea? :)

I am in the northeast and I too am thinking of a move to a lower tax state.

I hope Southerners won’t mind another conservavite moving there some day! :)

State, sure. But Atlanta? I pretty much thought that was a lost cause. I mean, Mayor Shirley Franklin?

Compared to our former convicted felon Bill Campbell she is much better. Having said that, I also quantify that this is a relative statement as well. Atlanta's social and budget problems are the reason why Sonny took the federal moolah when the other southern governors said no.

Yes Atlanta is a blue dot in a sea of red but it is no more libtard than Austin TX and less blue than Northern VA. We had over 20,000 folks here for the Tea Party downtown and more gun owners than our prospect SCOTUS thinks is prudent...

The old Rust Belt region, centered in Ohio and Michigan, and including Indiana, Pennsylvania and parts of Illinois, New York, and West Virginia, continues to deindustrialize. This process has been going on for at least 30 years. We will no doubt find out if America can remain a superpower if our industrial base is gone. Both the neoconservatives, who imagine we can pursue aggressive action to defeat Islamic terrorism, future Chinese hegemony, and a renewed Russian threat without having the manufacturing capacity that provided the North with victory in the Civil War and the nation with victory in the World Wars, and the liberals, who dislike industry in general except when its tax revenues feed their socialist schemes and their inflated wages support their union allies, are to blame for the slow death of U.S. industry.

That’s not even a smart comparison, my bank’s been bought like three times, so yes sometimes your money does get “transferred” without your approval. This guy needs to wrap his head around the fact that feces occurs.

I don’t have to worry about the vehicles, never have and never will own one of either. My company got bought last year though, actually that’s been a good thing, the new top dogs actually know the difference between their ass and a hole in the wall, and they believe vacation should be used.
