Now NY gets NOTHING

What a blunder...

Agree 100%. But these idiots don't see it that way, because they despise big business along with the wealth it creates. They only see it as "fair" when they and they alone can play Robin Hood. And proceed to rob from the haves, so they can redistribute it to the have not's on their terms. In reality all they're doing is kicking the goose laying the golden eggs, right out of the barn.


I think you just hit the nail on the head, well said.

just toured a new pipe mill in the USA … and the city limits suddenly moved further than that to absorb the facility …

I despise when low IQ people go on about corporate taxes, "fair tax", "paying your fair share". When will people understand corporations don't pay taxes?!! The consumers pay the taxes! Any tax a corporation pays just makes their products more expensive, the cost simply gets passed on. The employees pay the taxes through their pay checks.

I despise when low IQ people are hoodwinked into believing they should pay federal income tax and
can't comprehend that the constitution requires that only corporations pay federal income tax and that taxing the small handful of them is much less expensive and more efficient than spending 8.5 billion dollars taxing the 120 million working individuals.

Further the massive deficits caused by not taxing corporate interests cause the most offensive tax of all, making everything you have become worth less stagflating your income and savings while large business are immune.

Believing they are unpossible to tax effectively is fiction and just shows they have done their job brainwashing a lot of people into believing in this nonsense.
This Shows an imputance toward common man and a lack of will and integrity in our collective governments.
Who are in a race to the bottom which will only bring about a depression and further consolidation of companies just as it did the last time this was done in the 20's.

The best times in our country always coincide to the highest effective corporate tax periods (talking actually paid)
The period we are in currently has the lowest worldwide corporate tax rates ever collected with the highest levels of income ever
residing in the hands of only 5 people.

We are in a crisis that we don't fully comprehend and it's a ticking time bomb that will demolish economies when it eventually fails. Too big to fail indeed.

Amazon, good god, silly people.
I just love it when HUGE companies like Amazon join up with OUR public servants to put small businesses out of business.

Come on people, wake up, huge rich companies get huge tax breaks, small business owners pay the bill. Its a scam, government in business with Amazon, lining their pockets with corruption, small business suffers.

I got to admit, this in ONE time and only ONE time I have to agree with the wacko new liberal politician over there in NY. For the wrong reasons but glad to see Amazon run away with its tail between its legs.
These companies need to be broken up, Facebook, google, amazon ect, they got their hands in EVERY aspect of your lives. From the news you read to the TV shows you watch.
Does anyone in these threads even know that Amazons CEO (I call him bozo) owns the most influential newspaper in the country? and you hear its news all day long, think there is a little conflict of interest in American lives, more so in dealing with the President? That newspaper is The Washington Post.

From everything you buy, to everything you say/speak in your home (Amazon Echo), to every "news" source you listen to or read, Amazon knows it and you and your children and you let your politicians get bribed to located in your town on top of it.

Newspapers are still influential?

alarmguy,

I disagree with you 10000000 %. The American government needs Bezos and Amazon.

Amazon is probably the best thing to happen to the USA in the last 50 years.... besides the fall of communism.

For the record: I do own AMZN stock and think Bezos is a wise businessman and has lots of good ideas for you and I.
