re: Louisiana Film Tax Credit: Good or Bad?

quote:

Legislators can stop or amend the credits anytime they want to do so, with some grandfathering in place for productions already under way.

If they tried to do that we'd see a litany of people whining before some legislative committee about how the entire industry would crumble without the tax breaks.

There is no doubt tax breaks create economic activity, but like the poster above indicated; picking winners and losers should not be the business of government.

If tax breaks bring economic activity tot he state then why not cut taxes across the board? Why just cut taxes for a targeted group?

I know, we beat this dog to death, and it isn't going to change anything. The tax break for the film industry will be here forever.
