So the Delta thing is just becoming more of a mess...
- Apparently only 13 people ever used the discount. - GA Senator goes on CNN and said its because Delta also gives discounts to planned parenthood. This was proven to be false. Delta doesn't and never gave a discount to planned parenthood. - GA Senator then turns around and says its because they give discounts to groups that support planned parenthood - this again was proven to be false. Not sure what GA will try to lie about next. No clue what's going on here in GA but its messed up. I am against states giving tax breaks to corporations...BUT GA is on a slippery slope. Now when a dem is in office they will take away tax breaks to any organization that supports conservatives? I mean that is the message they are sending. This is really ridiculous. This is just a losing battle. I think it also just took Atlanta out of the Amazon Headquarters running. |

I agree GA is playing a stupid game. Rescinding tax incentives for a business based on political views expressed by that business is... Well bad business. Tax incentives are already controversial to some (not really to me, I understand competing for industry and jobs), so why make it even more so?
In the end Delta is pretty well established in Atlanta. They won't go anywhere. That's the gamble GA is taking. Just like Delta is taking a gamble on NRA customers not caring so much, or being so small a portion of their revenue that it'll be a blip on their radar. There's a difference between a private company making a political statement and government, however.
