$23k tax collected / job created with a 7.65% state tax rate, roughly means a $300k salary per job for 15 years. Sure sales tax and real estate taxes will help

$23k tax collected / job created with a 7.65% state tax rate, roughly means a $300k salary per job for 15 years. Sure sales tax and real estate taxes will help some, so let's be generous and say you only need $200k in average salary for 13k workers over 15 years. That still sounds completely unreasonable to me.
I feel like governments would come out ahead if they refused to negotiate. I guess with multinationals the nash equilibrium leads to governments all ratting out each other... Isn't there something game theory can do to save us here?
- oarsinsync 9y agoThe prisoners dilemma ultimately proves that in the short term, while you win more if everyone works together, you ultimately risk losing less if you don't work together. Or rather, if you think another govt might blink and screw you, blink first and screw them to avoid being screwed more by them.
