Anything is possible: today was the day a group of dedicated, everyday New Yorkers & their neighbors defeated Amazon’s corporate greed, its worker exploitation, and the power of the richest man in the world.

She's really something else ... comments in most these articles talk about how the gov't should use all the incentives they were planning to give Amazon for infrastructure now. I guess they don't realize the incentives weren't free money?

I'll tell you what, she was right about not giving Amazon all those subsidies. Corporate welfare is not ok.

But yeah a lot of the other stuff she's saying is laughable.

Its a shame they scared amazon away, yes they didnt need/deserve some of the breaks they were getting but overall it was a big win for NYC and NYS. This AOC chick is crazy thinking amazon coming was a bad thing. They knew it wasn't and just need to bitch about stuff, Amazon called their bluff.

All these Congressmen/women slamming Amazon for paying no federal taxes the last two years ... at the same time excusing themselves for not doing anything about it.

Nonetheless, there is something deeply troubling about a company that made $5.6 billion paying zero federal taxes. I mean WTF. All the bums in office should be thrown out for doing nothing about this sort of thing.

It's what I've been saying for a while now. We're so busy fighting about Democrats versus Republicans that we're not seeing how the mega wealthy are raping the system because they're in bed with both sides.

you always want to lay claim to money that doesn't belong to you...here's another revelation for you...CONSUMERS pay corporate taxes as they are passed on to them...

Anyway, I had to go look up "trope" as I haven't heard the word used in years. Best definition I saw came from Urban Dictionary:

"An overused, nearly meaningless word worn out by pretentious twits, much like paradigm." :lol:

So you're saying that NOT kicking someone for use of the word would be a paradigm shift?

Are the dems using Tropes as "gravitas"? Seems every contact, mostly democrats, have some use of this "new" word, "tropes.

She's huge lightweight with zero experience. Got an undergraduate liberal arts degree and couldn't find a real job, so she was working as a bartender until she was recruited by a PAC to run to the left of the incumbent in a progressive district populated by morons.
