Move to Kansas the Air Capital of the world. Is Wichita most of all Aircraft are built here and 2 Airports one air force base. Aviation is the bread and buttered this city and it’s a straight shot anywhere fast in the US in any direction. amazon

AOC

yeah and it's not scamazon scramazon

How? How is pulling out of an overpriced, overpopulated , level of unionized human resources a loss? Proximity to what that's important ? Money? That's everywhere. Qualified workers? -At least 30 other cities are equal or above the talent level. Hub? Are you kidding me?

Amazon can bring the HQ2 to Metro Detroit Metro Airport combined w/Willow Run Airport nearby could be an Aerotropolis & Amazon can create a Hub that is Central to the USA for all International Biz Detroit is Primed to be the Phoenix of the North

It’s definitely a loss for NY; a win for Socialists like AOC. It’s a political blow to cuomo & diblasio. it just goes to show that TAX REFORM is imperative. Giving huge tax breaks, where constituents are heavily tax, won’t fly. But corps won’t come without them. Catch 22!

A massive loss. 25,000 jobs and families devastated. All destroyed by AOC She is why the kids don’t usually sit at the grown ups table.

It is a loss because it does not focus on NYC's fading infrastructure and tax base. Cuomo doing his crying act before the deal was sealed had to have alerted Bezos that this was not a center of political power anymore. Thus off to Virginia. Do not ask for whom the bell tolls.

'Yay! We are keeping the oppressive fruits of Capitalism (aka jobs) out of New York!

Ok Jeff Bezos

AOC reacts to Amazon abandoning its NYC HQ2 plan: “Anything is possible”Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the New York City Democrat, called it a defeat of Jeff Bezos, Amazon’s founder and CEO, who is the richest man in the world. It is perversely brilliant for Bezos and Co to cast AOC as a deal-killer. PLEASE RECALL THAT JUST LAST WEEK FOXCOMM DID THE SAME THING IN THE MIDWEST . And so ends the ballad of AOC. Her GreenNewDeal is a cataclysmic disaster and not even dems support it. She ran off AmazonHQ2 as well. Everything this child touches collapses in on itself. BilldeBlasio and NYGovCuomo’s biggest failure as politicians. Karma will catch up one of these days.

Dow futures get a boost | US-China talks set for next week | Amazon bolts NYCFutures are pointing to a higher Wall Street open this morning, following a mixed session which saw the Dow and S&P 500 end brief win streaks. I heard Trump appointed Gallagher as lead negotiator. ilsalvavitapisc These headlines are bewildering. You can’t use that headline as why the futures are higher. Every day, same nonsense from CNBC. Can someone please admit that they have no clue what’s driving the market higher. Pure market manipulation at this point.

'Million Dollar Listing' agent Ryan Serhant: Buyers are 'freaking out' about Amazon ditching NYC'Amazon coming, I think, was a great thing,' says Ryan Serhant. 'All they wanted to do was bring jobs.' Tears for all the Amazon execs who front ran the original announcement and loaded up on “cheap” condos. 🤣 Corporate welfare in the form of sweetheart tax breaks has to stop. Period. Uber rich corporations like Amazon do not need any tax breaks. I feel worse for the people who won't have jobs and economic opportunity as a result of the political grandstanding by Queens politicians. Shame on them.

Amazon ruins the communities it takes over, says NY state senator who opposed NYC deal'Amazon needs to get ahold of what they mean to communities, and act responsibility,' a NY state senator said. 'When they come in and take over a community like that, the community dies.' I love the expensively printed 'protest signs.' The labor unions printing presses worked overtime. The Senator in question probably wanted Amazon money for his campaign. When he didnt get it, he fought to kill the deal! I will vote him out next time. Seattle disagrees. thriving
