"Town officials... are trying to decide how much of a property tax break to offer and how they can secure state funding for infrastructure improvements.... although it could take several years for the studio to realize its economic potential."

"Town told film firm may create 3,000 jobs
Financial consultants say a proposed $300 million movie studio in Plymouth could generate thousands of jobs and millions of dollars in tax revenue while putting few strains on town services.
PROMISES, PROMISES!!!!!
Consultants presented their findings this week to town officials, who are trying to decide how much of a property tax break to offer and how they can secure state funding for infrastructure improvements. Officials with Plymouth Rock Studios want to build a movie and television production facility on 240 acres. The project would include 14 sound stages, a back lot, a hotel, and an education center. Consultants say the project would probably generate about 3,000 jobs and $168 million in wages, although it could take several years for the studio to realize its economic potential (AP)."
Of course, this is a BRIEF in the pro-Jewwood, pro-corporate giveaway, Zionist-controlled Boston Globe!
Of course, "flushing . . . millions of dollars away supporting a highly profitable industry" when it comes to $300 million in taxpayer dollars for Hollywood is o.k., even as the price of a school lunch rises; paying $13 million for a computer software system that could have cost less than $3 million is all right because the winner was a close friend of the House speaker, even as my poorer-than-dirt district "has been struggling to close a $2 million budget gap."; the lottery shelling out "millions of dollars" for sports tickets for "lottery officials, their family members, and friends" is fine, even as schools are closing; making interest payments to banks to the tune of "a staggering $22 billion" for the Big Pit, as we call it around here, is required, even as bridges are neglected across the state; and again, paying off banks like UBS, who can "demand repayment of an additional $2 million a month beginning in January" while also receiving a "$179 million payment," while the state pension fund loses $1 billion dollars -- which still didn't stop the executive director from carving himself a nice "$64,000 bonus on top of his $322,000 annual salary."
Oh, and did I not mention the $1 BILLION dollar giveaway to the pharmaceutical corporations, even though "it's never been easy to turn a profit in biotech?" Flush that money away, too, taxpayer. Of course, the war looters were next in line for a handout. And should the state be appropriating money for a "multimillion-dollar reconstruction" of golf courses?
Nor is it RECKLESS to BORROW the STATE INTO OBLIVION so they can PAY INTEREST to BANKS while SITTING ON $2 BILLION DOLLARS!
Yup, keep the income tax because we need to KEEP SERVICES!!
PFFFFFFFTTT!
Readers, I am SO SICK of SHIT CORPORATE MEDIA and their GOD-DAMN AGENDA-PUSHING BULLSHIT!!!!!!!!!!
