Virginia thanks NY for those extra jobs. The issue here is NY’s leaders are idiots and don’t understand the fundamentals of economics. Deferred or reduced taxes on Amazon (investment) in exchange for many thousands of good paying jobs (return) and all the down stream economic benefits as those employees pay taxes on good salaries, buy houses, buy cars, and participate in a plethora of other economic activities in the local environment (further returns). Keep electing clowns that want to keep raising taxes, adding regulation, and are unfriendly to business and you get a free market result - companies leave or don’t come to NY in favor of other more business friendly locations. Brooklyn loses a set of very good jobs due to political blundering yet people people want to blame “evil” Amazon. Sorry, that’s not how this works. Good for Amazon.
