    I think NY could have used those 25,000 or so jobs.

    Amazon backs out of planned New York campus after critics panned the deal

    Amazon backed out of a planned deal Thursday to create a campus in New York after local politicians and critics panned the idea.

    “After much thought and deliberation, we’ve decided not to move forward with our plans to build a headquarters for Amazon in Long Island City, Queens,” Amazon spokeswoman Jodi Seth said in a statement.

    Democratic New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo and NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio supported the deal, but many locals protested at stores and hearings, and the city’s council has badgered Amazon executives about the company’s position on unions.

    Amazon is moving forward with plans to construct another center in Arlington, Virginia, near the nation’s capital. The project in New York was expected to create 25,000 jobs. A smaller project in Nashville, Tennessee, is expected to create 5,000 new jobs.

    Things started breaking down in January when Amazon Vice President Brian Huseman said his company would fight efforts to unionize the campus.

    Huseman fielded questions from New York City council members Wednesday during a meeting at City Hall. Council Speaker Corey Johnson peppered Huseman on his company’s intent to fight unions after accepting a $3 billion payment in tax breaks and subsidies to locate a new facility in the city.

Need I say more?” - Chris Rock

    That obnoxious bag of wind, AOC, is celebrating this

    25,000 jobs not coming to New York

    While New York has a $2B tax revenue shortfall

    It figures

    I’d like to offer Alexandria Obnoxious Communist a deal. Come up to Binghamton, New York, one of the most economically depressed areas in the State, for a year and try to find a job, make a living, put food on the table, and raise a few kids.... without the help of her filthy rotten Communist swine friends.

    See what it’s like to have to live under a regime that puts Socialism above people’s interests.

    Then after she’s done, turn the filthy bitch over to ICE, who she admires so well, and have them show her how they do their job.... and have that filthy vermin deported to Venezuela.... that would be one less Communist fuck in our country

    That’s a laugh.... the kids in the pre-school up the street from me know more about economics than little Miss Marxist

    Come to think of it, the cocker spaniel next door does, too

    Apologies to the little kids in the preschool and the cocker spaniel for mentioning them in the same sentence as the Bolshevik Bitch from the Bronx
