IF Cuomo really wanted to help NY. Why wouldn’t they put the Amazon headquarters in Binghamton, Rochester, Buffalo, Syracuse or Utica. One of the more economically depressed places.
That is a great question. I think part of that answer lies with Jeff Bezos who is triangulating with the location in the media capital (NY) and the nation’s lotus of power (DC).
I see this as Bezos’ empire building with the purchase of WaPo and moving to these two influential centers.
