> Corporate welfare is a scam and typically I am not in support of it. However, in the case of MI, its generating jobs at no cost to the state's residents.. So, do you support the break Tennessee is giving Amazon.com for locating its distribution facilities there (after they had to withdraw from Texas due to the sales tax burden)? Didn't I say I thought generally that corp. welfare was a scam? Why would TN spend good tax money on warehouse jobs?! And the South wonders why it can't get out of the economic hole it is in.
