The question is why they felt they deserved a tax break in the first place. They even threatened to move to Australia at one stage.
We're not talking about small businesses, strapped for cash, struggling to make ends meet, asking the city for some help so they can keep the lights on and people employed.
We're talking about well-funded companies, with an army of lawyers and accountants, deliberately bullying a city, to eek out every little advantage they can.
Not sure what stage they were when the got that tax break (nor do I know the details) I do know a lot of cities offer these and the cities tend to reap a lot of benefits through having them stay. So maybe it's fair.
Before they spend the money, will they refund the taxpayers of San Francisco for the tax break they got?
