A lot of businesses, companies, corporations fled the north to the south in the 1950's and 60's for lower state taxes and less state regulations. Plus the salries they had to pay was less with other advantages. Tax breaks was a good thing for the mostly rural south at that time. It meant good paying jobs and money and provided rabid growth in population.

Now I seen an advertisement about New York state a couple of days ago on TV promising 10 years of no state taxes to any business that moves into or back into New York state. I wondered seeing that how that makes the businesses already operating in New York State feel about that. They get nothing for staying, newcomers get everything.


It's high past time that we start electing Americans to congress and the presidency who put America first instead of their political party. For way too long we have been electing Republicans and Democrats who happen to be Americans instead of Americans who happen to be Republicans and Democrats.
