And so is the far Left for Amazon kowtowing to the far, far Left...

New York Governor Cuomo blasts AOC and left-wing Democrats for 'putting political interests above community' and driving away Amazon - despite polls showing most people supported tech giant's new HQ

most people did not support it. the opinions were scattered. mostly we want to quit giving money to wealthy corporations instead of to schools and roads and health care. why should any state give "incentives" to jeff bezos who just paid his $0 income tax? then the state has to put in new traffic devices security and police? fvck that go to virginia and kentucky. if they wanna pay you fine.

then who are these people?
Coumo is as crooked as a dog's hind leg. The people cant afford it. There will be no new seaport. The housing prices go up.

They already have transportation and housing problems so no not good for Queens Long Island imho

So from the first minute or so pf the video I seen Fox news called her and another politician hypocrites because they bought **** off Amazon while not supporting corporate welfare for Amazon? I don't think those Fox commentators know what hypocrisy is. If they support corporate welfare for other companies but not amazon then that would be hypocrisy. Simply being a customer of a business and not wanting that business to get corporate welfare is not hypocrisy.

I think socialist are leeches.But at the same time it shouldn't take a leech to point out that corporate welfare is wrong.Corporate welfare should be banned all across the US.

Salty, most people, including you, who do not support it, think that now there is this big bucket somewhere that now contains 3 billion dollars that can be used for your pet projects.

There is no 3 billion dollars. That truck left with the Amazon caravan of 25,000 taxpaying jobs heading south.

Virginia, Kentucky, and the 17 other non NY Amazon expansion cities thank you. They now have billions for their pet projects.

A greater issue now is that no CRO will look at NY as a possible new area for expansion.

They're the very same ones who voted for this idiot in the first place.

So now you are an expert on what the people of New York City need or don't need? How is loosing the prospect of 25,000 jobs a good thing?

While I agree with your assessment of Cuomo, to borrow a phrase "even a blind hog finds an acorn now and then" meaning that in this case, Cuomo was correct. AOC opposed this deal mainly because she doesn't have a clue about how a free market works and is pandering to the dumbest voters in her district. The fact that she was voted into Congress, is evidence that the voters in her district aren't any smarter than she is. They deserve each other.

if they are not going to hire many (if any) locals that's fine. Alcoa tried to campaign for mining in a protected medieval forest (across Fla-Ga line) and bring jobs to the community. They were minimum wage jobs of which there were already a plenty.
no i know this is tax incentive etc and taxes paid by a smaller employer would give more to the community. Another idea is Bezos offer training and/or education programs to the community so they can work at higher tech jobs.
yes southerners have gotten the raw end of this for decades now including the deal for a non union car plant.
so why are those folks still qualifying for food assistance and wait till the last minute for health care?
