That's not liberal language. That's the same thing conservatives like Amash and others have talked about with the obama auto bailout and other corporate welfare bills. Crony capitalism, corporate welfare. It's a company which needs no incentive to stay, since it made $56 BILLION in revenues last year and brings in another $5 BILLION from government contracts.
Yes, it's a bad deal for taxpayers and the people of IN. Who's picking up that $7 million tax break Carrier won't be making? Which part of the state budget will be cut to try and eat up that $7 million?
Nice for those 1,000 families from the one plant -- though another 1,100 families are still being laid off from two other plants and their jobs are being moved south.
