Amazon is a for profit enterprise. They shouldn't need government incentives to operate. Their incentive is to turn a profit and adjust their business model as needed to survive. If they aren't able to do that without incentives, then in a free market, they will cease to exist.

@andrewrsorkin I find it interesting that the author of Too Big to Fail is for incentivizing an $800 Dollar Company to do what it should be doing on it's own. It's almost like you learned nothing from lessons in your book. - Još 12 drugih odgovora

@andrewrsorkin meant a financial illiteracy epidemic, he's right. alas, that is hardly unique. there is also widespread illiteracy when it comes to civics and to global understanding. US high schools and colleges are not preparing students for the world they are entering -
Well the tax cuts are revenue neutral or the tax cuts will pay for themselves are part of the financial illiteracy epidemic.

Agree. Econ 101 needs to be a mandatory class for Jr High, High School and College students.

Financial incentives packages like this aren't covered in Econ 101. I know that as someone who took an Econ 101 course once.
