I'm happy to see all sorts of new ideas being considered and tried. People tend to forget that it was not just New Orleans that was devastated and that the area involved is one of the poorest in the country. While I agree with you in principal, I'll go along with tax incentives if that will make it easier to sell some of the other ideas being floated, like sweat equity housing, the cash incentives to get off unemployment. That said, if it is an either/or on tax incentives, I'd rather see the quicker write-offs for equipment than buildings because I think the incentive for equipment purchases would lead to more jobs sooner.
