Time for a level-headed approach to business, taxes
This comment here speaks volumes, and is exactly what has been on my mind for years.
"One of the problems in economics is the seen versus the unseen," the Tax Foundation's Robyn said. "We see a big corporation leave our state and take 1,000 jobs, and that's very visible and we say, 'We've got to keep those jobs here.' But what you don't see is when those 1,000 jobs leave, what other opportunities open up in the state or, more importantly, if you buy them off and give them all this money to stay, what you don't see is the opportunity you lost with that revenue. You could have used that money for something else."
I do hope the Mayor, and Governor read, and act upon such grand logic.
