[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why don't more businesses move to flyover country? This area is full of people struggling with high COL unless they make high six-figure incomes. Many companies could relocate anywhere or offer remote options. [/quote] Obviously, it's not all about the low taxes. For some companies, it's about an educated class, which the middle doesn't have a lot of. When you have folks saying "college education is over rated, etc...", then you end up with a population who can only work in or want manufacturing jobs, and those just aren't going to come back because we can't compete with China and Mexico with their very low wages. For many, the "if they build it, they will come" motto doesn't apply.[/quote]
