I think this lies firmly in a grey area of "healthy competition". Is it healthy competition if one state lets a company dump chemicals and another doesn't? Or if one state lets a company burn coal? No, it's just one state being greedy because they can socialize costs. I'm not saying this is the same thing here but let's not pretend like this "incentives" market is comparable to the labor market.

- trophycase 8y agoIt's a thought experiment. I'm taking "healthy competition" to the extreme to demonstrate that your conclusion isn't necessarily valid because it doesn't apply to all cases. In either case it seems we disagree on what is and isn't healthy competition.
