Johnny Depp, George Soros, Warren Buffet, Ted Turner(UN Supporter, we know that's anti-American) what's the difference, they all won't voluntary pay taxes they can weasel out of.

Okay, you're obviously not understanding what Wisconsin is doing here.

This isn't a tax break for rich liberals, it's a tax break intended to draw corporate investment. The film company gets tax incentives for pumping x amount of money into the local economy.

Instead of complaining, we ought to be celebrating any time when a state reduces taxes on those who invest in their state's economy.

I invest in my state's economy each and every day, but I don't see anyone giving me a tax break.

I don’t think anyone is criticizing Wisconsin for giving tax incentives. The criticism goes to the liberals of Hollywood who have a double-standard.

I would prefer across the board tax cuts rather than tax cuts for new and sometimes favored businesses.
