&gt; So by being &quot;anti-business&quot; what you mean to say is: &quot;Didn&#x27;t give away tons of tax payer&#x27;s money to a private corporation.&quot;<p>Actually, Connecticut only succeeds at maintaining huge corporations relying on government subsidies. Hartford, CT is the country&#x27;s insurance capitol. The reason the state is so &quot;anti-business&quot; is precisely because they give a bunch of taxpayer&#x27;s money to publicly-traded mega corporations. The income and property tax cost this saddles on normal taxpayers and small businesses is enormous, and they get very little benefit from it.
