Princess Cortez doesn’t want Amazon in her beloved New Yawk. The Yawkies don’t need anymore jobs. LOL.
In 99-percent of America, if a company came around and tried to offer/bring 25,000 jobs to the community....just about everyone would be focused on helping the company.
NY City liberals? No.
My guess is that they are going to be extremely careful about the next choice (Chicago is be definitely out).
The Slimes is planning to give up another floor in its Building?
A bunch of hardcore leftists were shown on the local news celebrating the rejection of/by Amazon. 25,000 jobs would mean fewer folks dependent upon government, after all...can’t have that!
“The Times then admits the deal had issues, but it feels that doesn’t justify the shock loss of 25,000 jobs and roughly $27 billion in tax revenue over the next 20 years.”
20 years? We only have 11 years and 11 months left before we destroy the earth.
I hate articles about articles. I’d rather just read the original than somebody telling me what the original says.
“You have to be tough to make it in New York City,”
Nah. All you need is a semi truck full of cash.
There are 3 big losers in this fiasco:
1. Mayor Bill de Blasio
2. Zero Cerebral Cortex
3. NY taxpayers, again
What’s the matter NYT? You donr like the monster you created?
You created DeBlasio. You created AOC. You created the very culture and climate in NYC that breeds this madness.
“The schools are segregated” in New York City—a mere 65 years after Brown vs Board of Education outlawed segregation in public schools.
Who could have seen that coming?
Northerners have turned hypocrisy into an art form.
NYC voters reaping the rewards of their vote.
Good luck to both sides.
Let’s wrap this Freepathon up, Folks!
Amazon 2 is now coming to Texas.
You take the good and the bad with it.
I’m sure the Slimes will endorse Wilhelm for whatever office he runs for next.
Komrad Deblasio and the Komrad Cortez nitwit are representative on NYC citizens’ attitudes. The representative system works in that you usually get the candidate that most resembles the attitudes of the electorate who voted for them and they were duly elected by a majority of the voters in their oblasts. This really says more about the values of the jackasses who live in “the city” than politicians’ individual loathsome personalities.
The Times has an impressive list if why MY sucks, they left out the sky high taxes.
The actual liberals of long ago (as opposed to today’s Leftists) welcomed new jobs, and retaining old ones. They knew that more jobs was better, even as they had not a single clue as to how to create more of them...but at least they weren’t so stupid and/or bat$hit crazy as to actively try to destroy jobs.
So, either the NYSlimes editorial board is composed of the old kind of liberal or, as I suspect, one or more of them was counting on making a lot of money off of this new Amazon HQ in some way.
