Thoughts on this: Facing opposition, Amazon seems to reconsider N.Y. headquarters site???

25,000 jobs to lose is a lot even for NYC ......

I got a good laugh out of this today.

The liberals are now going to have to answer for Amazon pulling out. Hopefully the voting masses in the city realize that the people they are voting for are delusional. These elected officials cost them a lot of jobs and a lot of cash. Then these same politicians gloat about it.

I smell a change coming during the next election cycle.

Cuomo and DiBlasio were both for it......most people can't even name the politicians who scuttled this

u have to hand it to the Progressive/Socialists Dems in NYC. Pulled off this Amazon disaster like Venezuela. blessed with enormous world class oil reserves, Venezuela in midst of civil war, mass starvation and citizens fleeing the country in untold numbers. so I have to ask the Venezuelans. You have progressives and socialism running your country, How's that working for you?
BTW: in no particular order,deal breaker brokers: NYC Council, State senator Mike Gianaris, Council member Jimmy Van Bramer and Alexandria Ocasio Cortez ( Bolshevik)... Not that anyone cares

Everything is great in NY - just ask Cuomo!

Why we get the government we deserve.

[A lot of moves had started to be made after Amazon announced plans that it would build in Long Island City. For example, over the course of the 14 weeks since the announcement, contracts to buy homes, mostly condos, jumped a mind-boggling 181% compared to the same period a year ago, according to CNBC. ]('https://www.ccn.com/alexandria-ocasio-cortezs-cringeworthy-reaction-to-amazons-hq2-pullout-proves-how-out-of-touch-she-really-is')

The $3billion in subsidies would have been a drop in the bucket compared to the amount of upside that there would have been for the entire area not to mention the rest of the city. I don’t even live in the city anymore and I’m upset that the deal was killed lol.

Just read an AP recap of the "breakup" and almost peed my pants with this snippet:

***The final blow landed Thursday, when Amazon announced on a blog post that it was backing out, surprising the mayor, who had spoken to an Amazon executive Monday night and received “no indication” that the company would bail...***

***“I was flabbergasted,” De Blasio said. “Why on earth after all of the effort we all put in would you simply walk away?”***

Because they CAN Billy Boy!!!! I always thought de Blasio was clueless, and now I have proof!!!

Vote them all out ... Losing 25,000 jobs is a terrible waste ........

AOC is so dumb, she probably thought they were trying to bring the AMAZON forest headquarters here.

being SMART is not a requirement to be a politician........Just look at our PRESIDENT!!!

Whoa ???!! Didn’t he say he was one of the smartest presidents ever???

???

AOC is so dumb, she thinks she has a big fat tax refund check coming now since she squashed the Amazon deal and they are no longer getting tax breaks to build their HQ in LIC.

The best thing AOC could do for America is take her own advice and NOT HAVE KIDS!

I mean why bother, they'd only live to see 12 anyway, since the world is gonna end!

AOC is holding a rally next week in Zuccotti Park to take back ALL THREE chambers of government - the Presidency, the House & the Senate in 2020.

Oh boy, she is a laugh-track unto herself. See what happens when stupid people vote, you get STUPID Congressional leaders...see California's 43rd Congressional District & Maxine Waters.

Yup the result of stupid people voting. We get an idiot for president. I agree with you for once.
