Illinois Boosts Corporate Tax Rate 46% to Raise Money, then Hands Motorola $100 Million to Stay in Illinois

``As proof of the misguided, counterproductive policies of Illinois, Governor Quinn hiked corporate incomes taxes to bail out a state deep in fiscal trouble, (it did not and will not work), now grants corporations hefty incentives to not move to Texas.'' -- Of course this is just gangsterism of a kind common to all modern corporatist governments. The noose is tightened on "everyone" in a category in general -- but then exceptions are handed out to the political favorites/patrons. The end result is the "little guy" (who is politically weak) getting the shaft.
