Just because they say they will come back in order to get "incented" doesn't mean they will. Just another opportunity to line the pockets of those at the top. We are acting like an abused spouse always giving one more chance. Your argument as to taxes is very weak when companies like GE pay no taxes and many more receive huge tax refunds. But like an abused spouse we have to accept a plausible reason to give them another chance and that is reducing corporate taxes. We are fuked and will look at today as the good ole days in 20 years. We are now to the point where we are driving our economy via government funding... This is the same gameplan of a third world country.
