Ohio Officials Propose Funding a Plant for Fiat Chrysler in Toledo - Wall Street Journal. Corporate welfare at its most ridiculous. I'm old enough to remember when the state gave GM a shit-ton of money to put in a paint line at the Moraine plant. The same plant the state just gave massive tax breaks to a Chinese windshield glass company to move into. I also remember when the state gave another shit-ton of money to Daimler Chrysler (at the time) to build the Jeep Liberty plant. Shouldn't the state get some equity when they put up that kind of dough? The payroll taxes are just dividends on the investment. There should be some equity, too. Warren Buffet would get a lot better deal for his investment than the state of Ohio will get. That's bullshit.
