Texas is offering more than $15 million in incentives to bring SpaceX's commercial rocket launch facility and 300 jobs to the Brownsville area. Gov. Rick Perry announced the incentive package Monday for the project that is expected to bring $85 million in capital investment to the state.
Invest $15 million to make $85 million? Seems reasonable to me. And I would venture to guess that $85 million is just for starters.

While true, the amount is a drop in the bucket compared to other incentive packages seen recently.
