8 thoughts on “Lawmakers consider offering remote workers $15K to move here

  1. Indiana is not a free state, we have backwards thinking leadership that rules Indiana with corruption and fear. I would not recommend anyone move here until we get better, less corrupt leaders.

    1. According to Cato Institute, Indiana is the 6th state in the country in terms of freedom. And, you are free to find greener grass elsewhere.

    2. @jeff the cato institute is a think tank who is funded to publish such findings.

      Their output is meaningless as it is all paid for by the Koch brothers. I would not trust their output anymore than I would trust the “findings” of Open Society Foundations

    3. And, apparently, our legislators think it’s worth $15,000 to hold your nose and deal with it.

      Apparently they’ve done the cost/benefit analysis and figured out that it’s cheaper to bribe people to come here as opposed to investing in the state and making it a place that people want to move to.

  2. I don’t know why I haven’t found a new job. My position offers NONE of the above. They most likely won’t let us work from even with 14” of snow on the ground. Makes no sense.

  3. Every very individual decision made is ultimately a financial one. The state income tax is a progressive tax, which is also a centerpiece of the Communist Party Manifesto, intended to punish those who work harder, longer hours, resulting in higher income and progressively higher tax rates as a percentage of income.

    It’s time to remove this Communist plank from our state, especially after Governor Holcomb used dictatorial powers to remove Freedom of movement, loss of private property rights and freedom of worship during his term. I remember when there was no “local income taxes”, which are also progressive.

    As one who supports the concept of Liberty, I call on fellow Hoosiers to stand up to tyranny, and to contact our State GOP organization and ask them to remove Holcomb from his membership. It’s time to throw this dictator out of office. If not now, then when?

    Since every very individual decision is ultimately a financial one, then we must consider that our state income tax is a progressive tax, which is also a centerpiece of the Communist Party Manifesto. It’s intended to punish those who work harder or longer hours, resulting in higher income and progressively higher tax rates as a percentage of income! Progressively punishing hard work.

    It’s time to remove this Communist plank from our state! This is especially true after seeing Governor Holcomb used dictatorial powers to remove Freedom of movement, loss of private property rights and freedom of worship during his term.

    As one who supports the concept of Liberty, I call on fellow Hoosiers to stand up to tyranny, and to contact our State GOP organization and ask them to remove Holcomb from it’s membership. It’s time to throw this dictator out of office. If not now, then when?

    I remember the motto of the anti-communist John Birch Society which states:
    Less Government, More Responsibility – and with God’s help – a better world.
