Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
✔ @AOC Won’t you look at that: Amazon is coming to NYC anyway - *without* requiring the public to finance shady deals, helipad handouts for Jeff Bezos, & corporate giveaways.
Maybe the Trump admin should focus more on cutting public assistance to billionaires instead of poor families. https://twitter.com/MariaTeresa1/status/1203080601521336320 …
Show us your boobs!

Hey Genius Girl, President Trump didn’t make the deal with Amazon, Andrew Cuomo did, you know Fredo’s Brother?
I would rather tax dollars be used to improve infrastructure that allows billionaires like Bezos or Bill Gates invest into expanding businesses and employing more people. This gets more people employed, and those people spend money in these communities that allow small businesses to thrive and employ people as well. This is way better then handing out Obama phones and food stamps. Sorry Karl Marx is a fraud, you should have figured that out by now, you are what? 30 right? Grow up
Yeah, leasing space for 1500 jobs is definitely better than building a new office for 25,000 jobs. Must be new (communist) math.
We don’t know that public money or incentives aren’t involved. Everything I’ve read on the subject reads like a non-denial denial.
Forgetting for a moment that 25,000 new jobs and new HQ space is a lot different than leasing space in a different borough for about 5% of that...
A top tier tech company looking for 1,500 workers in Manhattan doesn’t bring 1,500 more jobs into Manhattan, they are going to bring a few managers in, hire some support staff, then poach 1,000 or so of the existing talent pool of network and engineering gurus already working in the financial sector and getting paid top dollar who can’t be lured away from the big city to work in California, DC, Boston, or another tech labor hub. A headquarters facility would have brought in a lot of varied skillsets up and down the labor market and changed the community, this facility will be just another address and the sneakers walking in and out of it will belong to people very heavy on already sought and fought after talent in niche skillsets.
