I have no strong conviction about the merits of their view, really. I'm just pointing out that painting them as hypocritical in regards to the Amazon deal, as in your original post, is not really well-founded.
- listenallyall 8y agoSorry, but it is entirely hypocritical to benefit from tax subsidies in all kinds of ways, such as being employed by a company receiving large tax credits/incentives, taking the mortgage interest deduction, enjoying parks and recreational activities funded by other people's taxes, and certainly, use of the great, yet heavily subsidized, NYC subway/bus system. I'm sure residents of Syracuse and Rochester love helping to pay for the NYC Subway (/s) and they also would have warmly welcomed Amazon (not /s) http://interactive.nydailynews.com/project/mta-funding http://interactive.nydailynews.com/project/mta-funding
