Amazon cancels plans to build headquarters in New York

[Yarddog]

New York certainly showed Amazon. The state doesn't need 25,000 jobs. Those little supporting businesses don't need customers who work for Amazon. Good thing Occasional Cortex was elected. I hope she does more.

Hey well the good thing is, those 25,000 jobs and all the tax revenue, and new rentals and home sales, and car leases, and shopping trips, visits to local eateries, etc and etc. will all go someplace that deserves it more than the people of NY... meanwhile AOC plans to invest the 3 billion locally... no doubt if she invests 3 billion,, it will probably cost her tax payers at least another 3 billion to keep afloat whatever programs she starts

Noooo. Really? Nooooo. She can't really think there is 3 billion, like not paying taxes means the state would write Amazon a check. There's no 3 billion.

I heard her say it on the radio with her own little voice!

Amazon and the politicians made back room deals without public input

The people of the community opposed it and won in the end

 

[EvilCat Breath]

There were some people in the community almost crying at the loss. We needed this, the man said.

Despite the wishes of 25,000 people who wanted a job, democrats took that decision from them. I am personally glad. The more pain Occasional Cortex causes now, the better in the long run.

After all what is $3 billion in TAX BREAKS when they were going to produce 25,000 NEW GOOD PAYING JOBS, with all the tax revenue and assorted peripheral jobs accompanied to that move.....NY, A town full of and run by idiots!

Amazon said Thursday it will not move forward with plans to build a headquarters in New York after rising opposition from local politicians.

The company said it will not reopen the search process "at this time. We will proceed as planned in Northern Virginia and Nashville, and we will continue to hire and grow across our 17 corporate offices and tech hubs in the U.S. and Canada."

Proper vales had JUMPED bease oF Amazon coming, as oF today the vales are 6% lower then before the original announcement...New Yorkers ...got to lover the leftist mentality!.

Why not negotiate some more housing for the locals?

Some New Yorkers had mounted protests after the deal was announced, angered by the $2.8 billion in incentives promised to Amazon and fearing further gentrification in a neighborhood once favored by artists looking for cheap studio space.

They should have had options before ramming it down the people’s throats.
$2.8 billion in incentives is more than Trump got for his wall. The politicians needed to quantify the costs and benefits

Shhh...Move all of the Stock Market offices and the finances that come from that to another city and see what happens. The Capitalism you hate but pay stupendous taxes.

Maybe Amazon doesn’t pay enough taxes, or whatever... but AOC is doing her people a disservice by gloating over 25,000 lost jobs. The sad thing is she believes she actually won something. NY lost tax revenue, and support for surrounding businesses , also increasing tax revenue.
Whatever shortcomings there are with Amazon can be battles with later.. but get the jobs, don’t chase tethem away. It’s a common thread though with states controlled by Democrats. My state of California is losing people to Nevada, AZ, and Texas all the time. California makes it less profitable to live here and do business here, even if it is a beautiful place.

how about some housing upgrade projects?

Modern technologies for modern times!

 

[Intolerant]

The one thing that I learned from 8 years of Odummy as president, is that the current generation of Democrats believe that jobs are a bad thing! Maybe I'm just too cynical, but I've never seen so many politicians work so hard to put people out of work.

As crazy as this sounds, I honestly believe that the next time that the Dems have control of the presidency and all of Congress, they will do everything within their power to crash the economy! I feel that they want to create an emergency that allows them to increase their control over private industry.

The Democrats seem to be going in the direction that they must first destroy this country so that they can rebuild it into their ideal image of the Socialist utopia that they think this nation should be! I never thought that I would see the day that I would feel that the greatest threat to our nation are our fellow citizens!

 

[danielpalos]

Upgrading infrastructure should be a fixed Standard for Government.

modern times should require modern forms of housing.

Everyone must get smart..... The quest of the leftist is to convince certain people to leave the workforce over time, and to not seek jobs in certain sectors anymore, and instead to embrace or go socialist in so that those who then become dependent can next be broken, brainwashed, and controlled by the Demon-crats.

The crats will lead the citizens to the poisonous streams in which they will be forcing the citizens afterwards (in many manipulative ways), to drink from.

There are movements a foot, and they have Agenda's that don't align with the old standards, policies, cultures, religion's or lifestyles that had brought American's together, and had brought us so far as a nation together.

If everyone just opens their eye's to the bigger picture going on, and it becomes clearer and clearer to them, then the appropriate responses will become more and more prevalent.

Upgrading housing and infrastructure must be better than price controls and tax cut economics.
