        So that comes to $175,000 per job. Seems like the state of alabama is losing on that deal...

        These corporate incentives are a zero sum game in favor of corporations with no guarantees that they won't move on immediately after they expire.

        @realDonaldTrump @DonaldJTrumpJr Site didn't go to NC. Incentives good, plot ready but Alabama is non-existent union state and has lower wages & benefits. Mr. Trump jobs but LOW Paying but your "dream jobs" suck.

        @ladivagante fijate que además de bajas de impuestos, también les dieron incentivos. Me parece importante señalarlo porque si no queda la idea equivocada que con la baja de impuestos alcanza. Estamos ante una política de estado para atraer inversiones. Algo que no tenemos acá.

        “Incentives” = reduced skim for poor spending decisions.

        So this had nothing to do with Trump but he’ll gladly take the credit for it? Do I have that right?
