So true. The rent in NYC is already very high. What kind of lifestyle can a blue collar worker afford in NYC? Obviously the only winners here are corrupt politicians and greedy Amazon execs. They should all be jailed.

- giantsloth 8y agoThis isn’t hyperbole. Corporations are stealing directly from the tax payer via politicians and they should be jailed for it. We need more calls to action for holding these people accountable. No one “dislikes tax incentives” what an absurd straw man ... they don’t like being robbed for the benefit of a small few at the expense of everyone else.
- jondubois 8y agoThe division is real and worsening. It's not an imaginary concept that we can choose not to discuss.
- sokoloff 8y agoDiscussing can be productive. Calling for a blanket incarceration of legislators and Amazon executives is not.
