A few years ago it was a Connecticut firm that sought to move off shore. Reason: To save on costs, a euphemism for tax bill.
Politicians on the left and right rallied to call the 100-plus year old company's move a bunch of names including ''un-American." The firm finally backed down and stayed in one of the highest tax states.
Now two more huge companies want to move their headquarters, Toyota and Pfizer, for reasons we'll leave you to figure out since elected official apparently can't or, worse yet, don't want to.
