Amazon not going to NYC

There are mixed views on Amazon withdrawing from NYC.  On one hand we have the idiot (aka Alexandria Ocasio Cortez) who with other state representatives protested giving somewhere from $2 to $3 Billion in exemptions to convert a structure in Queens NY to the HQ2 for Amazon.  On the other side of the issue are those who believe that the city and state must give some tax exemptions to get large businesses to locate there which is done by just about all states to land a big corporation.  In that corner was the governor and mayor of NYC among others.  The latest poll number indicated that 70% of New Yorkers supported having Amazon come to NY. 

Amazon was bringing approximately 25,000 jobs where most would have a salary of $150,000 or more.  The anticipated income to the city and state over 10 years was estimated to be a minimum of $25 billion plus.  This does not take into consideration all the other businesses that would profit.  Some of these would be real estate, restaurants and contractors to name a few. Naturally, a certain skill would be required to obtain one of these jobs at Amazon.  I guess since this company is owned by Jeff Bezos, it would not be recommended one wear a MAGA hat to the interview.

A city or state offering incentives to attract business to their state is not unusual and has been done for years.  The benefit to the community with a well-established business cannot be denied.  However, when you are a socialist and anti-business, anti-success and anti-rich then you try to stop any business that is not controlled by government. This is what you do.  What is interesting is the Mayor of NYC is an admitted communist, the governor acts like a socialist and the idiot in congress does not understand how business or economics work and has denied her community jobs and income.  People are lifted out of poverty through a job, not a government handout.  Something the idiot and her stupid followers fail to understand.  But, we might add the idiot and her followers believe Amazon was exploiting their workers.  Let me see, with a salary of approximately $150,000 being offered, I think many would line up for that job and would not think they were going to be exploited.  The only people that would be exploited would be all those that want to live under socialism and the idiot.

We might add for those that do not understand the various names given to different political movements just to make them more attractive to the voter, nothing has really changed.  A progressive, socialist and Marxist are the same ideology, communism.  If you do not know history, then you should read about these failed government control of everything. 

It is going to be interesting to watch the upcoming presidential campaign where the socialist democrats attack each other in an attempt to go one better on controlling the people with their failed programs as those who believe in our constitution as written watch from the sidelines.  By the way, what has Sen. Schumer said?  Still waiting for his response to the loss of this business and income thanks to his socialist comrades. 

This is what socialism brings, despair and poverty while the government decision makers live in luxury.  History has shown this to be a fact.
