“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."

The idiot speaking here has no idea that he has inadvertently identified a key problem: they are not a bank and their assets are not "your funds". I suspect that Ohio having treated NCR as though their earnings belonged to the state is among the reasons they chose to relocate.

Excellent catch!!! Georgia looks at them as a customer; Ohio sees them as an ATM machine. Funny that was the first analogy that came to mind for the Lt. Governor of Ohio.

Full marks, Andy, full marks.

You are exactly right. Destroy the tax base with unions, regulations and increased taxes and then whine, moan and complain when that base decides to leave. Of course, soon companies will either not be permitted to relocate from “blue” states, or they will be taxed just as though they had remained.
