Oh, sorry, it was "only" 1/2 a billion that was specially on the table for Amazon (if up thread comments are to be trusted) That's not peanuts.

- vonmoltke 8y agoI never said it was, or that it in itself wasn't a problem. It's far less than $3B though, so anyone talking about billions specifically for Amazon is wrong. Also, if your problem is large tax breaks for corporations, the focus should be on those programs that make available the other $2.5B available, since any corporation with a similar scale project could get that. Focusing specifically on Amazon distracts from the existence of these programs and whether that existence is a good idea. As an aside, your snarky tone detracts from your comment and hurts the discourse.
