I asked Dasher on Facebook if he supports corporate welfare

Anxiously awaiting word.
















Not.

jackarse .....A & E owns Duck Dynasty.....not the Robertsons....WOW

Geez, dude. Do you have another issue?

Of course it's awful, so just move on.

I am not a fan of he film tax credits because I would rather there be no income tax in Louisiana. But since we have it, tax credits are typically a reduction of taxes due unless it is refundable. Is this tax credit refundable? If not, how is corporate welfare if the corporation is simply being gouged less by the State than it otherwise would be?

Vance McAllister responded and I like his response---

I do not, I think the tax credits to the film industry, regardless if they are my friends, is a terrible investment by the state. For every one dollar we receive from the film industry we giveaway seven dollars! That is a losing proposition and it is not creating long term employment for Louisiana! Lee must create jobs for Louisiana and we need to grow the jobs we have before we giveaway the bank to new companies!

Kudos to Vance!!!
