On the other hand 40 million for another 4000 high wage taxpayers and a very expensive but taxable property improvement that can't be moved is a pretty good investment compared to a sports stadium or other"public investment"/tax break deal.

Philly/PA is pretty successful at extracting more than enough taxes to compensate for this fairly minor enticement.

tshirt Premium Member join:2004-07-11 Snohomish, WA	tshirt Premium Member 2014-Jan-16 2:44 pm said by KrK: Where did you read high wage jobs? CSR reps are typically paid low and treated like dirt. I actually read the story Which said "The $1.2 billion development will be home to up to 4,000 employees dedicated to developing new apps, software and business services for the Philadelphia-based company." Not exact CSR's

KrK Heavy Artillery For The Little Guy Premium Member join:2000-01-17 Tulsa, OK	KrK Premium Member 2014-Jan-16 2:46 pm I read between the lines. It's a PR statement. 4000 programmers, no. A couple dozen? Likely.

tshirt Premium Member join:2004-07-11 Snohomish, WA	tshirt Premium Member 2014-Jan-16 2:53 pm CSR's get housed in some business park in NJ, or off shored. tower buildings are for housing those with degrees on a higher pay grade. Not just programmers, marketing accounting and all those NBC (non broadcast networks) people you want to move out of expensive buildings owned by somebody else in NY.

KrK Heavy Artillery For The Little Guy Premium Member join:2000-01-17 Tulsa, OK	KrK Premium Member 2014-Jan-16 2:56 pm They already have that other Tower. Guess they'll just move them over and create 4000 new jobs at all pay grades. Those jobs if displayed graphically by compensation, it would be a pyramid. Always is.
