As a citizen, I am happy, but I can't say the same for those politicians. I'm pretty sure they are upset now because they are not getting the bonuses they were expecting....Aww....I'm so sorry to hear that...
It's like with Obama's TPP...very secretive, they won't broach any oversight, any questioning...and the morons lap it up like the Second Coming of Jesus Christ!!
Seriously, these idiots would surely interview anyone they hire and do background checks but somehow none of that is important when it comes to businesses doing what they want just the way they want to....
So true. No wonder people and Business are flocking South.
Good; let them. What's the problem? In fact, let them go to China!
Let him depart; his passport shall be made,
And crowns for convoy put into his purse;
We would not die in that man's company
That fears his fellowship to die with us.
NIMBY a-holes win. These people say infrastructure is bad for them and amazon would make it worse. I suppose we should stop all progress and not build anything because these snowflakes are too crammed on the train.
Bunch of crybabies, man this is such a bad ominous sign for NYC. Exodus...
And yet here you are, whining over something that's got nothing to do with you.
Go to China. It's a capitalist paradise over there. You belong there.
Your tax dollars weren't going anywhere. It was basically Amazon paying reduced taxes to the city, not the city (or you) actually paying Amazon. Now the city gets got 100% of nothing instead of 70% of the total real actual tax bill. Great.
A doctor's first order of business is to DO NO HARM.
Better no gain than certain loss.
If you hypocrites are so worried about taxes, you should agitate for making Amazon pay its fair share, which right now is literally $0 in federal taxes...and they want more tax breaks???
You people should just go to China and stay there. Win-win!!
Never understood why they wanted LIC. Westchester made more sense.
They recruit from the global labor market (thus putting to bed the lie about "losing" 25K jobs) and top techies typically wouldn't want to in a suburban environment.
And you can keep your coal mines and black lung disease, too!
