Weather Forecast
57°, mostly cloudy
As long as unions control labor in RI and have representation in the GA (no one thinks union attorneys in the General Assembly is a conflict of interest?!), count on major players bypassing RI as a home for business. RI continues to rank in the bottom five for friendliness to business, up from dead last a few years back.
Major businesses stimulate the economy by hiring locally, bringing in people from out of state, and then those people spending money in the State; as long as RI's xenophobic residents view limited business tax credits and other incentives from a "that's how they get ya" standpoint, and as long as permit issuers, politicians and bureaucrats approach them with their hands out, they'll continue to avoid RI like the plague; businesses will also continue to leave until there is no tax base left, other than those who are too stubborn, too uninformed, or too unqualified to leave.
