http://variety.com/2014/film/news/danny-glover-heads-san-francisco-rally-for-sweetened-state-film-tv-credits-1201216727/"Nearly 40 other states and 30 other nations offered nearly $1.5 billion in tax incentives last year to lure jobs and wages out of California, and the percentage of films made in California has gone from 66% to 40% in just a few years, a flyer for the event said.
The event is also aimed at showing that improving the incentive program has strong support outside Los Angeles.
A March rally by show business vendors in the San Fernando Valley drew more than 600 attendees, and a February event organized by Hollywood below-the-line unions attracted more than 1,000.
Assembly Bill 1839, aimed at overhauling the current incentive program and attracting bigger movies and TV series, is being promoted as essential to keeping productions from being lured out of state. The legislation cleared the State Assembly by a 76-0 vote on May 28."
There goes for Hollywood Liberals wanting to pay more taxes.
Seriously, this tax credit is a loser for state governments and must be cancelled.

but when a different country or company lure jobs away from a red state, its become a traitorous act.
Funny how those goal posts move when its your state was the victor versus victim.
