[...] year ago on Nashvillest: We wondered if shelling out $3 million in tax incentives for the Hannah Montana movie was a good idea, read a silly poem by our favorite weatherman Tim Ross, laughed at a dog driving [...]

i aint one to ponder, but i think that maybe miley cyrus is the most amazing girl out there. she made 18 million dimes in a year, which shows real potential. i like to think that as a tennessee home blood, that i'm somehow related to her. after all; everybody here is incestuous – why not keep it in the family! i love my dungarees; they practically the same as miley's. she's an amazing girl and i wish her every joy. but i'd better go; cause there aint enough cow dung to power this computer no longer!

@Rex – We’re mostly just poking fun at the whole ordeal. Not everyone is going to be happy either way. We can’t claim that the news sits well with the state employees that are losing their jobs (just see the Tennessean article’s comments!) but we also can’t overlook the facts – With all personal opinion aside, the movie brought more money to Tennessee than the state offered in rebates, as well as provided hundreds of jobs for locals.

The irony of the situation can’t escape us, though, since the Cyruses are actually from Tennessee, and the movie is about Miley returning to her “country” roots. How funny would it have been if they had filmed her “home” in Louisiana?!

And we just can’t forget how the kid made over 18 million bucks last year, hence the subject line.

I’m not a fan of “industrial planning” on the part of governments — picking winners and losers among businesses with targeted incentives. However, I think your subject line — and its implication that Miley Cyrus cost the state revenues that would somehow have saved government jobs is a bit of a stretch. Also, the unusually detailed article in the Tennesssean spells out completely the negotiation with Disney, so your comment “Weâ€™re still not sure why we had to pay the Cyruses to come home,” is a bit mysterious, as well. Again, I’m not necessarily a fan of state incentives, but in this case the Tennessean actually does a decent job in explaining how — and why — they are used.
