wow... a giant company like hood wants my tax dollars. a giant company wants me to invest tax dollars and they don't want to pay it back. these corporate people get paid millions of dollars a year and the format they use is to ask for free money from the people who are working their ass off to make ends meet.
I'd like to go to the meeting and let the corporate leeches know how I feel, but you know I have to work... so if any of you legislators are reading this let it be know that I say NO to any hand outs. I do not care about how many jobs you promise, I only want my legislator to vote NO. DO NOT give these slugs any of my tax dollars. NO NO NO ..... you want to expand ? do what I did when I expanded, go to the bank and borrow your money..
