Check out what Pfizer did to New London,CT for all you anti-union pro business people,it's not pretty.

I dont get your point. A lot of people like me are not just in favor of reforming public sector unions. We do NOT want government favoring anyone.. especially using tax money to bribe businesses with grants and tax abatements is wrong. Every business should compete on a level playing field with current business in that area. I resent my government confiscating my tax money from me and then GIVING (redistributing) it to anyone.. it is wrong.. that is socialism.. period!!
