    Any of you people think Hawaii does not need these should wake up. Florida just lost Ballers the Rock show back to California since they upped their tax breaks and Florida stopped theirs. If Hawaii does not have those say good bye to 5-0 and other films and possible Tv shows. Its the incentive needed, Hawaii is too expensive !

    How about the state gives us all a tax credit? 11% is theft.

    Actually, they should be paying us for the inconvenience. But, then agin, got to support the Tourist industry. A lot of people depend on those jobs.
