Yup, goes both ways. Assuming the companies promised more and underdelivered, your city's economic council should have written the contract-break into the contract. Or assuming the companies didn't promise that much, your city seems to either have done a deal aware of the potential of negative outcome (and accepted it) or did not do due diligence. But it doesn't discount the idea of economic incentives as a whole due to poor city planning in this case (or a gamble, whichever it was).

> it doesn't discount the idea of economic incentives as a whole I never said it did. However, if you really need to make a contract iron-clad in order to protect yourself (and good luck with that!), that's a very strong indication that the entity you're dealing with is untrustworthy and you shouldn't be getting into bed with them in the first place. The problem with most major corporations (and particularly major tech companies these days) is that they are not trustworthy actors.
