Democrat Darling AOC Slammed As “Financially Illiterate.”

[cdwright40]

This is another example of companies like Amazon playing the state and local government against each other at the expense of the people. AOC is refreshing. She isn't buying it.

It amounts to complete bullshit for politicians lining their pockets and talking about ROIs they pull out of their asses.

Nobody is holding a gun to your head....lol. Yes, 3 Billion in tax revenue is the number that she can get from any other business coming in. Why would she forfeit it unnecessarily? That makes zero sense.

Who the blankety blank said she should forfeit that?? She should choose to do both.

I take it you do work for the government. Slow day?

Ummm, Amazon says she should....lmao. Have no not been paying attention to what I have been saying over and over and over and over? Both isn't her choice to make. She doesn't care to forfeit that money and Amazon wants the freebies. She ain't having it.

Then stop....I am not going to agree. You think the more you tell me 9 to 1 ROI based on someone elses ill guided opinion is going to move me you are mistaken.

Not trying to change your mind just stating why she is foolish to me. You are well within your right to disagree with me.

But they would be losing 3 billion dollars.

AOC is right and she is going to be re-elected because this and one simple fact. Republicans don't run her district...and politicians with their hand in the cookie jar don't run her district either. She runs her district. She isn't someone that can't answer what magazines she reads. She is as sharp as they come.

States competing for industry (medical, engineering, aerospace, manufacturing, etc) in order to provide jobs to its residents and revenue to its coffers is an every day occurrence. Tough concept for dummies to grasp.
