Tax cuts for all, not a favored few.

Your beef is with the politicians, not Amazon.

If they are reconsidering their decision about the NYC location, it means they probably figured it's an extraneous waste of money.

IF...they wanted to deal with SJW politicians, there's no reason to leave Seattle.

The shakedown occurred earlier in the bidding process..... Amazon literally raped the NYC taxpayers to the point that even local democrats were shocked...

Huh? Rent is sky high in Northern Virginia and traffic is among the worst in the nation and most working class people I’ve spoken to are NOT happy about Amazon coming because rent will go even higher.
