Yes! YOU GO GIRL!! (Come on Freepers, we need to energize her!)
You are correct, the only job she cares about is her’s! F everyone else! That’s the Lib way. Hope all you New Yorker’s like having limited job prospects, high taxes and expensive energy. Good luck selling your house if you plan on moving. Guess you all are going to find out the hard way that the elections have consequences.
Explain why GE moved corporate headquarters from Fairfield CT to Boston MA?
You’ve cited all the usual rationales for such corporate welfare. The same points are used to excuse bidding wars of subsidies for boondoggles everywhere. For instance, they’ve been used to justify heavy subsidies for just about every major-league stadium, and every Olympics games. They were used to justify bailouts for the auto industry, and are still being used to justify all sorts of subsidies for “green energy”, electric cars, etc.
BTW, even proponents, such as yourself, must agree that the federal government will collect the same taxes, regardless of where, in the USA, Amazon sites its new headquarters.
These are people getting a government check. They thrive on envy but have no interest in looking for jobs. Did she shoot down a rich guy, yes. Will this effect her constituents, no. She's good.
She didnt blow off 25K jobs, she is pleased that her base didnt have to pay billions of dollars in giveawys.
VERY VERY TRUE, the people in these not so nice neighborhoods would have been able to receive TOP DOLLAR for their properties and jobs would have been great for those without college educations, HOWEVER what the hell does she care she now has a job making almost 200,000 a year WITH all the best benefits available on the planet!!! I PRAY this little BITCH socialist DOES NOT get re-elected!!!
The Democrats will be forced to primary her out or lose that seat to any lukewarm Republican available.
You get it!
Conservatives should know better than to support corporate welfare anywhere, anytime. It’s indistinguishable from “crony capitalism” — and provides fertile ground for corruption.
She’s sure on DeBlasio and Cuomo’s crap list now. Lol
Except now she wants that $3Billion that was to be given to Amazon to be put into the local community. I doubt Cuomo is going to give it to her.
No jobs for you.
I wonder what DeBlasio and Cuomo think?
5.56mm
Her base doesn’t PAY TAXES, her base would NOT have to pay one penny for the tax give aways to Amazon, her base lives off the government!!! The small business owners in the area would have really benefited from extra business in the area!!! This guarantees AOC will remain in her cushy job by keeping the community a SLUM AREA!!!
You are right on!
Her peeps don’t work, so they had plenty of time to “organize” and have demonstrations against Amazon. They probably literally got a free lunch, too.
Another step closer to the stone age. Less capitalism means less civilization. Hooray.
The 3 billion given to Amazon WAS NOT money it was tax revenue that would not be collected for a period of time she can’t be this STUPID!!!
“She does have a point about the corporate welfare (3 giga-bucks in tax breaks).”
Effin’ barely.
All NY is doing is forgoing the collection of revenues directly from Amazon. EVERYONE else (supporting business/enterprise, Amazon employees etc.) will pay big. As will everyone/everything that supports them.
The average salary of those 25,000 new employees will be $100+K per year.
That is $2.5bil PER YEAR in new income for this Congressional district. That’s enormously beneficial no matter what else occurs. Every small business and every public service in the district would feel a very big, positive impact immediately.
And this stupid, commie b!tch p!ssed it all away.
See my #79 on why your concerns are unfounded.
