I’d first want to see where the money comes from.

That’s easy, just check your Paycheck Stub for the Deduction.

Couldn’t have anything to do with Trump, could it?
...
Trump certainly didn’t hurt. Musk was one of those who met with Trump a couple of weeks ago.
Buffalo, NY??
I couldn’t think of a worse state...except my own California. Must be HUGE state and local tax give-always at work.
Ha ha..... :0)
The economy of Buffalo has been crashing for decades. They’re desperate to get serious manufacturing back.
Follow stories include:
<><> Handling fees and consulting services in Albany
<><> The list of consultants
Cash flows downhill into the Ratholes.
The people of NY outside of NYC desperately need this. I’m glad to see this. These are a part of the forgotten Americans and I, for one, am glad to see this.
FWIW, I think taxpayer funded bribes...er, incentives far more likely. Ex: Kraft.
We don’t need crony capitalism. Bribes don’t do a damn thing to lower taxes and reduce regs.
Not trump, Musk, and his his solar cells use mirrors and his rockets smoke too!
Take a peek behind the curtain, a huge machine that sucks money from taxpayers. And he keeps it well oiled.
Is SolarCity’s Buffalo Solar Plant a Failure? Tesla Thinks So
“The state of New York was so excited about the prospect of SolarCity’s solar panel plans that it handed the company a $750 million subsidy to build a 1 GW solar manufacturing plant in Buffalo. The building would cost $350 million to build and the state would spend $400 million in equipment that SolarCity could use for free. SolarCity just had to pay $1 per year in rent (seriously, rent is $1) and employ 2,000 people after full production is reached, something that hasn’t happened yet.”

The factory was announced in 2014.
The article posted points out that Musk and Panasonic were in talks in October, before trumps election in Nov.
Grow up. I am sick of you guys claiming crony capitalism. Where the hell were you when the jobs were drained out of the US?
Exqueeze me. I’m an NYS lifer. Been experiencing crony capitalism for decades. Taxpayers, jobs, and House seats are still fleeing the state. Crony capitalism does NOT work. I gently suggest you refrain from shooting the messenger.
There is a stable, mature tech/manufacturing labor pool there from when IBM scaled down.. no millennials to run the company into the ground with ‘progressive’ management.
Sounds like Trump has plans to move New York State into the red column in 2020.
Nice!
