Относно: Re: What I said was businesses were being "courted"
Iamon lyme: yes, they are..
"will offer to pay every and all expense incured in moving that business into their area, that would be nuts..."
Not all, but enough to make it a point.
"Incentives are usually in the form of tax breaks and elimination of needless regulations."
It's usually a mix. It's those on the low end who usually suffer as a result. Eg Texas has cut it's education budget.
"seriously, you really don't know what I mean by over regulation?"
No I don't. it's a relative term. I accept the need for regulation when it has been proven by cases of businesses cutting corners that are for the most part common sense.
eg ... a 454g pack of sugar must contain at least 454g, maintain good kitchen hygiene.
