Should Dell give the breaks back?

From WSMV:

When Dell Computer opened a factory in Lebanon, it said it would create 1,000 new jobs. But fewer than 300 people work there now, and now some public officials are asking why the company is still getting a tax break.

Dell used to be a humming computer factory, but it’s a shadow of its former self. Last week, the company announced more layoffs. It won’t say exactly how many, but a representative for Dell confirmed the Lebanon plant now has only 250 to 300 workers — about a third of its former workforce.

That’s causing a stir among city officials who gave Dell a 40-year property tax break to move to Wilson County.
