Oh, FFS. In the space of 100 years, we've gone from a nation filled with bad asses to one that...is frightened and confused by a poster with a phrase on it.
AOC demonstrates the value of a Boston University economics education yet again, celebrating the demise of Amazon's Queens headquarters because the city was giving Amazon $3 billion in tax breaks that the city could use for other things.
"The city was paying for those jobs, so frankly, if we were willing to give Amazon three — if we were willing to give away $3 billion for this deal, we could invest those $3 billion in our district ourselves if we wanted to. We could hire out more teachers, we can fix our subways, we can put a lot of people to work for that money if we wanted to."
Um, Sandy, that $3 billion was in future tax rebates. It's not sitting in the city's bank account somewhere. It doesn't exist without Amazon coming to Queens. And now, it will never exist.
Why should anyone ever believe, now, that it's not?
I maintain the whole point of HQ2 was to get free bundles of demographic information from every municipality in the United States, with especially good data from the most rape-able metropoles.
