As you can see, there are very legitimate arguments against these tax breaks. I do find it funny when other states use taxpayer money to try to lure companies from California (or somewhere else) and then claim that they are “creating jobs.” Idiots.
Governments are going broke (blaming the unions, of course) while shoveling money at these companies in a race to spend the most money possible on these ventures that often backfire in their faces. All too often, the companies take the money, do business in the state for as long as necessary, and then leave town after using all the resources and demanding taxpayer-funded infrastructure for their businesses that ends up going to waste.
