The lifeblood and economic health of this country is being slowly suffocated by the cancerous growth of government, on all levels. Atlas is staggering and the hour is late.. not just in this country, it is happening all over the western democracies..... underneath the regulatory and taxation schemes are tax giveaways and so called 'incentives' to lure businesses to their countries DESPITE the onerous taxation and regulation...ultimately this sends companies criss crossing the globe looking for the best tax 'incentive' and kickbacks and ultimately mis-allocation of capital...iow, they are 'temporary' jobs which will bolt as soon as a better incentive elsewhere arises .....the answer is obvious, eliminate the subsidies, dramatically disincentive companies from resorting to schemes like those (in florida that i have linked here) to offset taxation and create real competitive advantage....not some state or federal bureaucrat deciding which industries to 'reward' with taxpayer dollars to keep (or lure) business to their states (or countries) vfxsoldier.wordpress.com
