    Mike Summers (The State Representative): Bringing in new business is my number one priority.

    Roseanne: How?

    Mike Summers: Through tax incentives. See, we’re going to make it cheaper for out of state businesses to set up shop right here in Lanford.

    Roseanne: So they get a tax break?

    Mike Summers: Yea. That’s why they come here

    Roseanne: Well whose going to pay the taxes that they aint paying?

    Mike Summers: Well y-you will. But you’ll be working. Good steady employment.

    Roseanne: Union wages?

    Mike Summers: Well now, part of the reason these companies are finding it so expensive to operate in other locations—

    Roseanne: So, they’re gonna dump the unions so they can come here and hire us at scab wages, and then for that privilege we get to pay their taxes.

    Mike Summers: Is your husband home?

    This show is on Netflix Watch Instantly. Take the rest of the day off. Tell your boss that the Colorlines.com Tumblr account said it’s cool.
