This has nothing to do with unions. Nothing at all.

On a per capita income basis, Massachusetts taxes are LOWER than in such right-to-work states as Georgia and North Carolina.

Right-to-work states are generally states with lower educational levels than northern states, so they need every advantage they can get to close the gap. It helps a little bit, until companies realize they can get low-skilled workers even cheaper than what Mississippi offers if they go to a foreign country.

True or not it really doesn't matter in this case, does it?

Mass is about to impose a 7% tax on businesses. Do you think that will attract businesses to the state or drive them away?

Well if that isn't pure nonsense, I don't know what is.

The right to work law has 100% to do with union power, and if you believe that taxes in the NE are lower than in a right to work state such as Florida then you are brain dead.

Lower educational levels?? Ignorant MSM swill.

Like the great levels in Mass where they have 100% of those problems and the 2 most disgusting senators in the nation??

Hogwash!

You post could have been lifted right off of the DU.
