Leave out the snarky remarks and smoldery bedroom politics and you’d have the full 43 minutes for diagnosis, up from probably 20.

My understanding is that the tax breaks (which I am not a fan of either, unless they are provided to all manufacturers) would likely be for the economic advantages that come from having a large employer in the area, including jobs, collateral business activity in support of the large employer, extra taxes (even after the tax breaks).

The only reason against might be that it will enrich the Republicans' political enemies.

I believe that Tennessee is a right to work state, so those who don't want in don't have to be in. If the Republican majority will pull goodies because a business doesn't do things its way, that seems a bit like the flip-side of soft fascism. Caesar is very hungry.

Tax “incentives” pick winners and losers. It’s unequal protection under the law. It’s the same thing as giving “unearned income tax credits” to Democrat voters, which is the same thing as buying votes with our money.
