America, where socialism for the rich is a tax break, socialism for corporations is a subsidy but socialism for the poor is a "handout to others".

New York offers incentives because they have the highest taxes in the country. Probably makes more sense to just lower taxes overall. But that would make income redistribution more difficult.
The problem is NOT Amazon. The problem is the NY State Officials making “offers” to entice Amazon to come to their state. Hold your representatives accountable vote them out of office when they fail to represent YOUR interests. #Shameful
