i don't think it was as welcomed by the locals as amazon had expected. some of those folks up there are tight knit in their own way!

Hanco: Amazons statement says "a number of state and local officials (demonrat politicians?) to blame" for their reversal - also saying "we will take OUR business elsewhere"!
He-he!
Good bye great jobs with great pay!
Stupid fcuking demonrats - sheesh.

No company intheir right mind wouldrelocage to NewYork. Ridiculous taxes, corrupt pooliticians, crooked unions, high wages for featherbedding.


Don't blame me. I voted for Trump.

Democrats would burn this country to the ground, if they could rule over the ashes.

Indyca35: I think the amazingly rich leader of Amazon was/is fully aware of the status of New York and many of New Yorks politicians but he was choosing New York to try to reward the liberal demonrat politicos of the state and the states Federal politicos!
demonrats like bezos love to stir money around amongst themselves when ever possible!
bezos was not counting on the demonrat/liberals turning on him though.
I am laughing at this whole scenario and hope it has fallout detrimental to the demonrat libtards and demonrat libtard politicians in the long run.
He-he.

I am sure Oregon is on the very short list and I can't figure out why he would leave liberal western Washington. I am sure our Liberal Governor would gladly bend over for him to get him to contribute to his presidential campaign.

I guess there will be more jobs coming to Middle, Tennessee then. Amazon is supposed to be putting a big outfit in the Downtown Nashville area. Their presence (and pay) will no doubt increase the rate smaller employers will need to pay folks in order to keep them.

I think it's more of a financial issue than a get-even. Bezos is seeing the writing on the wall with NY. NY has made it so difficult to do business there within their unfriendly confines, businesses are moving by the thousands and many have been moving out of NY for years. I believe he doesn't want to get entrenched there and then have the dims turn to him to shore up their depleting/depleted corporate tax base. He's already shown great savvy (if you want to call it that) in avoiding providing healthcare and other benefits for employees, choosing to offload those onto the taxpayer. I believe NY elitist libs like that commie psycho Cuomo were seeing Amazon as a tax revenue shot in the arm and Bezos didn't see it that way. They probably had a couple meetings where that came out. That, and Cuomo dropping his pants last week about the 30% shortfall in tax revenue. Dumb basturd.
