No, what it says is Government intervention in the business market place.

 

So Carrier gets a $7 million dollar tax relief to not move 800 jobs to Mexico. What about all the other companies in Indiana which DON'T plan on moving jobs to Mexico? What do they get? I'll tell you what they get, not a darn thing. Carrier get's a $7 million government gift, while the rest of the Indiana business fraternity gets squat. Why should a great company who employs 100s of Indianians watch Carrier get a government lollipop for threatening to move jobs while they remain loyal to the American worker by keeping jobs in the U.S. get nothing?

 

Seems like people would be happy if every company threatened to move jobs to Mexico and the Government gave away all the tax subsidies to keep them here. In the meantime, average Joe (you and I) pay more in taxes to make up the shortage from the subsidies.
