OK, OK, I should have said "We're sending business to another state".

It's a shame we can't return the favor and do the same for some other states, but I guess one look at our "welfare" system would be a deterrent to any states wanting to do business with us.
I know the "state" isn't the one doing the actual work, but you do have to admit that the competancy of a business run in a state like Mass would be viewed as less than favorable.
Kind of like saying they are "guilty through association".

I am a legend in my own mind!

I fail to see the logic in that.....there are plenty of fine businesses that operate in MA.....


So you're saying that you don't like all the taxes that MA is charging you, but any businesses that operate in MA are "less than favorable" even though the more businesses in MA that pay taxes and hire more people that pay taxes will help offset your overall tax bill.
