So a bankrupt state is going to give more tax breaks just to keep movies from being filmed elsewhere?


California is not "bankrupt".

It depends on what their "credit" system looks like. If it's actually just a thinly-disguised rebate subsidy like Louisiana, then yes, they are stupid.

32 States Now Officially Bankrupt: $37.8 Billion Borrowed From Treasury To Fund Unemployment; CA, MI, NY Worst

The full list of America's 32 insolvent states is below, sorted in order of bankruptedness. California $6,900 Michigan 3,900 New York 3,200 Penn. 3,000


That means $6.9 billion borrowed

I know they aren't closing shop or anything, but states take money from the feds to keep afloat. In this example, 2010, Cali was the worst.

So yes, I was talking in generality.
