Yet Another Listening Tour In Which Nothing Is Heard

I have to hand it to the Governor. He wants to spend more of taxpayers monies by taking a listening tour with his new director of economic development to talk to businesses in our state. He should understand he is an anti-business, anti-economic growth, liberal Governor.
I personally would ask him to save his time as I have nothing to say but the following:
How are you helping businesses by passing the largest tax increase in the state's history?
How are you helping businesses by increasing state spending once again?
How are you helping businesses by not doing anything to address the state's unfunded liabilities?
How are you helping businesses by passing a mandated sick leave law-the only state in the country to do so?
How are you helping businesses by still having one of the highest workers compensation costs in the country?
How are you helping businesses by having a poor transportation system with constant construction on the roads?
How are you helping businesses by having negative job growth for 20 years now?
How are you helping businesses by having your best and brightest youth continue to flee the state?
How are you helping businesses by having an archaic property tax system?
No, it will be another photo op for the Governor, who just does not seem to get enough of himself and his ego in the media.
