"McKee Foods Corporation received a $422,783 check from Arkansas taxpayers on July 24. The corporate welfare check . . . is said to represent a payroll rebate . . . It is the way state economic developers take your tax dollars to reward private corporations who hire more workers at relatively low wages. They call it "incentives," and it increases corporate profits at your expense.. . . How long and for how much we will keep subsidizing the corporation is unclear. You can count on more of your tax dollars going into the pocket of stockholders, so dig deep to reward the welfare state of mind for corporations. It's good for business.
McKee Foods Corporation makes Little Debbie Nutty Bars and other nutritious snacks, and they are taking us on one sweet ride. If they layoff workers next week, do you think they'll return the money? Fat chance." Little Debbie® Gets Your State Tax Dollars by Jonah
