Hills bill was poorly written!! Giving away to much to her PERSONAL friends.
Hopefully we will send someone to Atlanta with the mental aptitude to bring about positive GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT.
Do you have a scintilla of evidence to suport that transparently politically motivated and probably specious assertion?
"Perdue nixed a tax-break bill by Rep. Cecily Hill, R-Kingsland. House Bill 1251 would have given the developers of large tourist attractions a portion of the sales tax generated for 10 years after opening. Hill had intended for the bill to entice a developer to build a retail destination along Interstate 95 in Camden County to draw tourists headed to or from Florida, but more powerful legislators commanded more votes with the goal of helping an Atlanta developer build the world's largest enclosed ski mountain." Is this an indicator of ineffective leadership and weak representation of our district or just plain old crap-o-la politics? Wonder if the ski mountain will be generating as many jobs and create as much wealth as the retail destinations on I-95 might have created? "Oh, when will they ever learn, when will they ever learn?" Google it if you want to hear it sung!
Maybe the governor based his decision on the relative need of the two competing areas for a new business and new jobs. Thanks a pant load, there, Sonny!
This is a pattern the Governor has followed from day one. He is big on the Atlanta area where the votes are. This was a good idea but not to the Governor's liking. You have to understand that the Aquarium. The Coca Cola exhibit and Stone Mountain are big draws and the Governor is, and has, done all he can for the big boys.The other two are private enterprise and Stone Mountain is state. But the Aquarium is owned by the Home Depot fellow and the Coca Cola company is controlling in Atlanta. It is political. The Bill was fine but was not in keeping with the plans of the big boys. South Georgia does not have the votes those large areas have. I know this to be the factual basis.
That sounds entirely believable to me.
