Every company competing with Carrier for sales, capital and other resources, is at a disadvantage because they're paying for the favor Trump and Pence have given Carrier.

This is not sensical. I am from Washington State. When Lowery was gov., he gave Boeing many tax breaks to keep them in Washington. By keeping Boeing in Washington State, the jobs at Boeing were kept as well as the jobs from companies that supplied Boeing. And, that save many, many jobs that aren't readily apparent and are mostly hidden.

When Locke was gov., Boeing asked for some tax relief or they would move their headquarters to Chicago. He didn't give it to them and they move the headquarters. Boy, was he surprised. Typical, stupid democrat.

Again, it's fine for states to do what they can to keep businesses from moving.

Not Presidents.

I realize Pence cut this deal but obviously at Trump's behest. Kind of a bummer.

I don't know how many A/C manufacturers there are in Indiana but I'm pretty sure there is only one airliner manufacturer in Warshington so that kind of falls under the apples and oranges thing.

Besides, as far as I know, Chicago is still in The U.S.

Its murder rate might rival that of Mexico's but, still.
