Good - let’s scream it from the rooftops that AOC is killing businesses and hurting the very people she purports to want to save from The Man.

The NYT times slams her, Donny Deutsch slams her, and now Amazon places the blame on her for this decision.

Those that elected these fools just want to be on the dole. They’re fine with this result, and they’ll still get their monthly check. They will reelect these people on the promise that their monthly check will increase.

Must be part of Cortez’s “socialist economy” scam. Now I know why she said President Trump is “scared” of her economy. I just saw a lot of Yawkies raising hell on the news. Trump is going to get the blame for her “socialist economy.”

she and cuomo cost NY 24 billion in tax revenue (27 owed minus 3 for incentives) over ten years and 25,000 jobs. This in a week where NY’s taxes have driven more people out of state and tax revenue is 2.5 bill less than projected.

Caller to Rush today brought up the concept of Cuomo being miffed that his planned trickle down had fallen through. LOL

Rush also addressed the comment by AOC that they could now use the $4.3 billion (approx), to fix things in New York that would have gone unaddressed, if they gave it to Amazon.

What the brain trust didn’t grasp, is that they didn’t have $4.3 billion. They were going to give Amazon a $4.3 billion dollar break on state taxes, since it was going to bring in close to thirty billion to the state.

So Cortez was expressing a thrill over a $4.3 billion that is now nothing but vapor, and not recognizing at all the other $26 billion the state just lost.

She’s just not capable of grasping these dynamics.

Yes, she just saved New York alright. And her little minions will be celebrating tonight.

If hers is an example of a BU education in economics, then shame on BU.

Amazon does not want to be the “other people” whose money runs out for the NYC communists.

AOC's opposition to Amazon was probably a very smart move politically. Her district had almost nothing to gain by it, and lots to lose (i.e., the taxpayer costs associated with it).

On the other hand, she may have done some serious damage to herself within the Democratic Party. Amazon was going to locate in a neighboring district that has been represented by Carolyn Maloney for more than two decades. AOC would have been better off keeping her mouth shut on this.

She’s 1 1/2 months in, and already making enemies because she doesn’t understand one of life’s fundamental facts:

God gave you two ears and one mouth for a reason - you should listen twice as much as you talk.

She’s making enemies everywhere, mainly because she is too stupid and immature to hide the true agenda of the Leftists running the Dem Party (or pulling its strings). She’s the cockroach who not only doesn’t hide from the light, but stands up and says, “Hey, LOOK AT ME, this is who I am and who all of us are, and we don’t care if you like it or not.”

Dear Mr. Bezos,

Their are hundreds of small communities, within driving distance of major metropolitan cities, that would offer affordable tracts of land where you can build your next headquarters. The people are friendly and would appreciate the opportunities that would naturally follow the placement of this facility. I doubt that Amazon would face any crazy local ordinances being adopted which would place a “head tax” on the numbers of employees you plan to have to fund all sort of crazy Social Justice programs.

Just a thought, but one you should consider before wasting your time like you did with NYC.

Good luck.

Sincerely,

A small town citizen.

The All Out Communist from The Bronx really screwed the pooch on this one. She just made a lot of enemies on her side of the fence.

Hopefully Amazon chooses a red state to move their HQ to, where their business will be better appreciated.
