Missouri Tax Credits: Boondoggle - Thanks to Ben Cunningham for passing along this example of incompetence and corruption up in Jefferson City. I'm sure if someone were to check, they would find that the scammers who have made off with the $2 million in tax credit money made campaign contributions (aka bribes) of anywhere from $10,000 to $100,000 to those rulers responsible for the legislation creating these credits. As I've long said, there is no better return on one's money, from a purely investment perspective, than campaign contributions. Mere thousands in donations return millions in direct paybacks, courtesy of the taxpayers.
