Kasich Bails Out Buddies At Diebold, Dithers on Casinos

Plunderbund has a great story this morning about Governor Kasich's latest corporate bailout of a company loaded with cash.  I guess this is what John Kasich meant by moving at the speed of business.  Its definitely worth a read:

Diebold’s international HQ’s is presently located in Green, Ohio near Canton—a region where the company started some one-hundred and fifty-two years ago.  It’s been at its present location since 1972.  While Kasich dithers on making any decision on the casinos, thus delaying billions in construction and new jobs, he’s rushing to declare victory over keeping Diebold in Ohio.

Today the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports that Governor Kasich and Diebold will announce that the State is giving $55 million (what budget deficit?) in tax incentives to essentially finance Diebold’s planned new $100 million world headquarters (the company wants to build a corporate campus as opposed to their current arrangement.)
