'contradiction' probably isn't the best word to describe it,

but in this case Georgia's government was giving one company favorable treatment that they were not giving to other companies.

pickle, of course, wants no government and no taxes, but that's not even close to an option for the foreseeable future.

If there is going to be a government and taxes, which is really a given, then the next best thing... or perhaps least bad thing, even from pickle's perspective would be to have a level playing field for all companies doing business in the state, no? Government favoring one company over others is even more egregious than having a government with taxes that treated all businesses the same, don't you think?
