Pa. Gov. Tom Corbett has awarded Perdue $8.75 million for a factory in Lancaster County planned to create 35 permanent jobs.
That means that for each of those 35 jobs, Pa. taxpayers owe multibillion-dollar Perdue $250,000 in corporate welfare.
Now Perdue has announced it's exporting 600 Lebanon County jobs out of state. So doesn't Perdue fairly owe Pa. taxpayers 600 x $250,00 or $150 million?

Considering they got rid of three times that amount (over the last three years) of jobs in Salisbury alone might tell folks about what their headquarters might be thinking.
Maryland is not a business friendly climate!
Perdues owes Pa. nothing , that state has gone way to the left lately.
This is very good and explains the problem with these big companies not only with the effect on the environment but how they are directly responsible for the decline of an area's economy.
