It's not even controversial, you're arguing against a very commonly known problem lol. CT has been losing business for decades

Ct ain't the best for business, but it makes up for it in several ways. I don't think we should become slaves that bow to the wishes of corporations. And a lot of those mention that it's headquarters that are leaving, which isn't a lot of jobs. Manufacturing jobs don't appear to be leaving from what your articles are saying. And there's lots of growth in small businesses in the state. If we want to thrive we be trying to bring in green tech businesses (cause they are booming), and other high education jobs, which offer high wages.

But corporate headquarters, not overly concerned since a lot of them like to go to nyc, but live in ct.
