New York State Budget Director on the “Fundamental Ignorance” That Killed the Amazon Deal

We didn’t my need more tax dollars going to amazon. No more cronyism.
One of AOC's mindless disciples lol

No money was going TO Amazon you babbling buffoon. It was a CREDIT on future taxes generated BY Amazon.

Instead NY loses probably upwards of 30 to 35 thousand jobs. Tens of thousands of jobs that would have INCREASED NY's wallet via NEW taxes that would have more than made up for the credit offered to get the jobs to come to NY.

Dumbass leftists

We need a Constitutional amendment to stop states from doing this in the first place. Or at least a Congress and Court willing to apply the Commerce Clause as it was intended.
South Carolina gave BMW no property taxes for a few years. A very good decision.

I disagree. These kinds of sellouts damage the whole nation. They make a mockery of equal protection and yell from the rooftops the government is for sale to the highest bidder.
 
No, I'm principled. If we let corporations negotiate for exemptions to laws the rest of us have to follow, we're idiots. And our government is a sham.

Corporations are free to negotiate terms with whomever they choose, this is America
Should all of us be free to negotiate for exemptions to laws we don't like?
Let's say Bezos has a thing for young girls. Should a state be allowed to offer him exemption from statutory rape charges if he chooses their state for his headquarters? Seriously, are tax laws the only laws that a state can offer up for negotiation?
Good GOD you REALLY are as stupid as a BOX OF ROCKS.

Really? So you think wealthy corporations should be able to negotiate for tax breaks? Anything else they should be allowed to "negotiate" for?

Tell me about this box of rocks.
All they negotiate for are tax breaks you fucking LOON. And yes when a competition is placed between where a company will locate a local Government needs the ability to negotiate to convince them to put their jobs and tax base in the local Governments control.
 
If a leftist Democrat like Gov Cuomo was pissed, then you know AOC really screwed up. She's pretty much done, only took 2 months.
 
We didn’t my need more tax dollars going to amazon. No more cronyism.

No tax dollars were going to Amazon you stupid moron, wait...AOC is that you?
It's unbelievable how stupid some of these people are. Something as simple as INVESTMENT for a return escapes them. Give a little now (tax credit) get a lot later (massive increase in new jobs & taxes)

Semantic horseshit. The exemption would give Amazon an advantage over everyone else who had to pay the taxes legally owed. Splitting hairs over what you call it doesn't change that.

Instead NY loses probably upwards of 30 to 35 thousand jobs. Tens of thousands of jobs that would have INCREASED NY's wallet via NEW taxes that would have more than made up for the credit offered to get the jobs to come to NY.

Dumbass leftists

Maybe - but in this case, they were right. Seriously, how far would you take this game? How much ass-kissing is a state allowed to do in their desire for corporate favor?

There's a name for government "investing" in companies and expecting a return. Wanna guess what it is? HINT: it stars with Soc....

It isn't a game dipshit. It is a fact of life for how big cities attract big job investments to their cities.
Unless and until you outlaw such practices this will be the norm.
 
No tax dollars were going to Amazon you stupid moron, wait...AOC is that you?

The state was "offering" three billion in tax relief. Parse that how you like, but it's not equal protection.

Amazon offered to pay NY $20 billion in taxes, stupid shit Cortez said no I'll take $0. :auiqs.jpg:

And that was $3 billion less than they would have paid according to the tax laws of the state. What other laws should they allow corporations to ignore in exchange for moving to their state?

Are you dumb?
No, I'm principled. If we let corporations negotiate for exemptions to laws the rest of us have to follow, we're idiots. And our government is a sham.

You're not principled, you're a fucking fool. Disney gets every break in the book in Florida and because of it, 126 million people visited Florida
last year, and paid all the State Bills of 21 million Floridians.

"Y'all come back now, ya hear?"

Yep. That's why it should be outlawed.

I'm not sure if you're trying to make a point or not. There's no doubt states benefit from these deals. But they're wrong.

Again, I ask: should a state be able to offer exemptions to any of its laws in exchange for corporate favor? Should companies be offered exemptions to pollution laws, for example?

Which would be POINTLESS because then cities and states would just lower corporate tax rates by lay to attract the jobs with the end result being pretty much the same by the time all the addendums are added to the new local tax codes.

You're wasting your breath

It's not a red herring, simpleton. It's a valid comparison. No one should be allowed to negotiate for exemptions from the law, no matter how rich they are.

It is NOT you fucking LOON, be specific and cite for us ANY previous time any thing other then land and tax rates were offered?
 
At least there are still some intelligent people in liberal land. AOC still seems to think that NY now has an extra 3 billion laying around. This is a definite symptom of a much larger issue, namely the dumbing down of our youth. The fact that 16,000 people voted for her is astounding. That's a lot of useful idiots.

They would have had $27 billion (after a tax cut of $3 billion) and they would have had 25,000 new jobs.

Now they get NOTHING!!!! AOC, the poster child for indoctrination centers, still thinks they came out ahead. Why do Dems even take her seriously? She should go back to being a bartender.

I know I'm wasting my breath. But it might turn a light on for someone else. A state lowering taxes for everyone, is a valid approach. Giving special perks to special friends is wrong, and you know it.

How is a state wrong by benefitting their residents?

So when you buy a vehicle...you pay sticker price?
