Yeah, this deal is pretty sour. I mean, why can’t we invest that money in Missouri businesses–ones that have already been paying taxes and supporting our schools and roads? I have to believe that there are at least a few Missouri-based businesses, global competitors even, who would like to expand and offer new jobs. Isn’t that one of Joan Bray’s issues, getting tax credits for local, independent businesses? What does she have to say about the Bombardier deal? cause it’s probably not going to help anyone in St. Louis.
These videos are great, entertaining and educational! The blogs are also full of Bombardier info; some good and some not. This tax credit package would not be a good thing for Missouri. There is not enough protection for Missouri and its taxpayers. We cannot risk this now, especially for such a risky industry.
