100 plus guards for the governor
Overpaid state employees
Unemployment/welfare for able bodied people for more than 2 months
Tax system based on consumption
Employment benefits of those in government (specifically lifelong ones)
Not to mention you sort of can just lower taxes in some cases. If you lower taxes and fees enough where its cost effective for companies to employ internally you’ll gain revenue through their income tax. Also, you’ll increase employment if they stop outsourcing and start hiring internally which would lessen the need for welfare programs.
It just seems fishy, how a state can wait so long to do nothing. There are non-necessities that have become necessities and instead of thinking of ways to invite business in they think of more ways to keep it out.
