Those who attended a rally in Wilmington say that North Carolina’s film incentives are good for the economy.

Why is that special? I can argue anything is good for the economy, as many have done before me. Infidelity creates jobs for lawyers. Communication of threats creates jobs for policemen and counselors. Bombing villages creates jobs for diplomats and other statesmen. Apply the economic multipliers and watch the economy grow, just like it’s been doing, or so we were told it should be doing by now.
