Yep, everyone who's bought something "Made in China" should know about how job-producing factories can and will move to the cheapest location.

Nevada giving incentives to have a factory built is no more corruption than tariffs to protect imports/exports is corruption. You can argue if it's a good or bad thing, but it's definitely not illegal nor should it be illegal.

That doesn't make much logical sense. If you think it's a bad thing you would want it to be illegal so that it doesn't happen. Just like if you think tariffs are bad that they should be illegal.

Maybe not illegal in the criminal sense, but illegal as in regulated to not be allowed makes perfect sense.

If every "bad" thing should be illegal, then tobacco, alcohol, marijuana, prostitution, lobbying, protectionism, should be banned. Then again, we have to argue what is "good" or "bad".

[gph]

Yes, people in the past (and even some currently) thought that marijuana and prostitution were "bad" so they made them illegal.

We are not living in a libertarian society, though I guess you can believe we should if you want.

It's bad to be rude, but it shouldn't be illegal to be rude.
