I've included a ranking with country of origin and wage
scale to give further guidance in this time of increasing globalization of
"Hollywood".
For what it's worth here's my take on "runaway
production"
I am not for protectionism in any way. The American Entertainment Industry
has an enviable record for being a leader in our foreign exchange with
other countries. So I wouldn't propose placing any tariffs or
restrictions on movies etc imported from other
countries.
But I would put US "economic runaway productions" that are often
set in US locales, made with US money, by US above the line personnel and
US cast and
made for a primarily US audience in a separate category and impose
hefty import fees/taxes on them when they are shown in the US in order to
level the playing field for those producers and production companies who
support and encourage domestic production. |
