      Sam Zell should explain what about minority inclusion in economic development is a “crock of shit”, and why city’s like NY and Chicago shouldn’t bake those requirements into tax incentives. This is what women and people of color deal with in the corporate board rooms daily @CNBChttps://twitter.com/mmartland/status/1103280540994670593 …

          Listen to the video you posted! You wanted to add to the deal. Maybe for good reasons, but at least be honest. You overplayed your hand.

          Good job on CNBC. A majority of Queens residents were pro Amazon. As a member of the FSC. What is your position on digital assets i.e #Bitcoin What if we could get some of these Blockchain Tech companies to partner & invest in our communities, would that be something of interest?

          Ny should accept the deal made with AMZN as that’s what a deal is. Then use the tax $ to fund programs you want. Better than no revenue. Try to change deal and they walk yes. But you can still fund intiatives for comm. like VAs smarter pols are doing (blkface scandal and all!)
