It's the problem with democracy, it tends to create results some people don't like.

- mcny 8y agoThere are some things where we don't allow democracy to work at a local level. There are things we do allow but I think we should discuss ways too eliminate: like nimbyism and efforts to increase property taxes without fear of a population drain to unscrupulous counties/states that are waiting to pounce. I'd argue that for a resident in California, it doesn't matter when jobs go away whether it goes to China PR or to Texas if the jobs go away because of a more LAX, fast and loose labor laws or just simply corporate welfare. I don't have any answers but there are some things beyond the basics of life and liberty of individuals who belong to a protected class. Is there a good solution to this "race to the bottom" (other than a Central world government)?
