I'm sure that many communitys take this corporate screwing.

in Pennsylvania,
communitys would "build the industrial park", put in access roads,
finance the building, and offer a ten-year tax holiday as incentive.

So who pays for this ?
It's taxed from the residents and workers in the community.

And, as is the case so often,
nearing the ten-year mark, the company would "up and move"...
often to another sucker community offering a sweetheart deal.
