Nonsense, just about every business is shopping their "new jobs" against tax breaks. You really should get in the real world.
Sure, buddy. Start a new business and see how much tax breaks a new business gets.
Truth is you never did anything like this in your life so all you can do is to critisize others.

Watch the Namecalling. Reread my last post.
You're wrong as usual, startup do get tax freebies. You really think a start up like your Amazon started without some preferential treatment from locals???
So, the President was correct in his remarks which are the subject of this thread?
No, 0bama was stating the obvious, that we all benefit from those things we do together, and then when people actually make good use of those things, he is right there, disparaging them for their success, and ridiculing them for studying hard, and being smart, and belittling them for working hard.
Thanks to Amazon thousands of companies are able to stay in business because they are able to sell their products with a very low overhead, thanks to Amazon hundreds and counting suppliers and their suppliers, thousands of people have employment and... are able to pay taxes.
You named intermediaries, increase of which only harms the economy, because it doesn't add enough value, if any.

You Russians, owe us access to the Internet because your dichotomous industry would never create a personal computer and your crazy rulers never allowed uncontrolled internet. Keep that in mind.
There were computer networks, including public. As for PCs, I had two at home - one designed in USSR, another a ZX-spectrum clone. IBM PC was also available, since its inception.

Amazon pays taxes like everybody else.
As a matter of fact, it grossly underpays taxes, comparing to brick&mortar stores.

Explain what you mean by "preferential treatment" since you're making that claim.

Listen, bud, my business started with no preferential treatment so did thousands of others. We pay from the moment we incorporate and get state licenses necessary to even start operations. You have no idea. Why don't you try it yourself instead of criticising others?

Where? In Soviet union? Ha ha ha. Sure. What else?
Sure. One that couldn't produce any advanced electronics or cars. Ha ha ha.
Judging an economy by luxury cars is idiotic
As for electronics - thanks to embargo, USSR was forced to produce it itself (rather than import from Hongkong, Japan and elsewhere), while having a very limited market. The quality of Soviet electronics was similar to American, before the "Japaneese invasion". Prices were generally higher.
