> less business friendly Just hypothetically, which of these two made up countries do you consider more business friendly: * Country 1 with low taxes and zero

  Crime isn't really a big factor, I think (maybe excluding weird failed states and countries that are at war) and work force is easy to train if you can afford the initial investment. Low taxes + low bureaucracy go a long way.

    No fun being rich in a country where public infrastructure are broken e.g crazy congestion

    Really? So instead of my business paying a lot in taxes I'll have to pay a lot for education. Doesn't really seem to be much of an advantage.

  Reminds me of the many discussions about the "business-friendliness" of GPL vs BSD software. Usually the focus is narrowly on the business that wants to take the code and sell it or derivatives as proprietary software, not on the business customers who would be locked into the software as customers and would benefit from GPL protections of software users. But for whatever reason, that framing seems very powerful and hard to dislodge. Probably because there's (at least potential) fat profits available to people who disseminate it. I guess the same is true of the "business friendly" policies of Republicans.
