Hurray for the people of NYC having 25k fewer good jobs rofl
AOC and socialism in a nutshell. Tax breaks are not money you can turn around and spend rofl, they’re just decreased revenue in the short term as an incentive for paying your community a ton of money in the form of infrastructure investments and good salaries.
It did seem weird to me that there was a split in HQ2 in the first place though.
Feel badly for the folks in the NYC area who were denied those jobs but you get what you vote for. Cuomo and De Blaiso did their best on this one.
What infrastructure investments? If the state or local municipality needs to pay for those too.
Look at the Foxconn boondoggle in Wisconsin. It was good NYC told Amazon to take a hike. Amazon will come crawling back or wait until they have a more friendly administration.
