New York Special Needs Gov. Andrew Cuomo excoriated New York's newbie Rep. Alexandria Obviously Communist-Cortez and others over Amazon's decision to leave New York City.
Opponents of the deal with the tech giant had "put their own narrow political interests above their community," he correctly said, for the first time in several years.
"[A] small group [of] politicians put their own narrow political interests above their community -- which poll after poll showed overwhelmingly supported bringing Amazon to Long Island City -- the state's economic future and the best interests of the people of this state," Cuomo said in the statement. He cowardly did not mention Communist-Cortez or other lawmakers by name. "The New York State Senate has done tremendous damage. They should be held accountable for this lost economic opportunity."

Andy, they don't care what the black and Hispanic community really think [71 percent and 80 percent favoring Amazon presence, respectively]. they only listen to the working white middle-class, the only group opposed to their being located in New York City.
In the statement issued by his office, the block head Gov. Cuomo mentioned that Amazon chose the Empire State because it is "the capital of the world and the best place to do business," adding that missing out on Amazon is a lost opportunity to diversify "our economy away from real estate and Wall Street."

Not to mention about 25,000 jobs they were going to bring to the city.
Cuomo also said New York lost out on an opportunity to further cement its status "as an emerging center for tech and was an extraordinary economic win not just for Queens and New York City, but for the entire region, from Long Island to Albany's nanotech center."

Congratulations to all you Communist sphincters who got your way on this. LOL.
The so-called governor ended the statement saying that New York's business climate remains and it would not be "deterred as we continue to attract world class business to communities across New York State," which is looking more like a temporary situation as the state wants to continue taxing the rich creating an exodus to Florida.
Cuomo's statement is seemingly at odds with Communist Mayor Comrade Bill de Blasio's comments on the issue, which seemed to put the onus on the Jeff Bezos-led company and not lawmakers who bemoaned the deal the two had helped usher in.

Sure, it's all Jeff Bezo's fault for not wanting to allow unions to form and have them take over his company and basically be run by an incompetent government over time.
"You have to be tough to make it in New York City. We gave Amazon the opportunity to be a good neighbor and do business in the greatest city in the world," de Blasio, a schmuck who supported the Sandinistas, said in the statement, not realizing or acknowledging that it's the other way around--Amazon was doing them a favor.

The knucklehead continued: "Instead of working with the community, Amazon threw away that opportunity. We have the best talent in the world and every day we are growing a stronger and fairer economy for everyone. If Amazon can’t recognize what that’s worth, its competitors will.”
It's like de Blasio saying: "We gave the International Olympic Committee the opportunity for holding the games in Queens, but instead of working with us, they threw away their chance."
Cuomo and de Blasio were largely responsible for helping bring Amazon to New York, a deal that would have seen 25,000 jobs, paying approximately $150,000 per year, enter Long Island City.
Amazon, based in Seattle, would have also occupied 8 million square feet of office space in Long Island City as part of its investment announced last November and would have generated "incremental tax revenue of more than $10 billion over the next 20 years as a result of Amazon’s investment and job creation."

But they threw away their chance to headquarter in New York City. Boy, didn't that Jeff Bezos really blow it?
In response to the news, Rep. Obviously Communist-Cortez, a self-described democratic socialist, and an other-described simpleton, tweeted that "anything is possible," taking a victory lap upon hearing the news at the expense of her community.
In a statement issued on Thursday, Amazon cited the lack of cooperation from certain elected officials as part of its reason to leave New York.
"For Amazon, the commitment to build a new headquarters requires positive, collaborative relationships with state and local elected officials who will be supportive over the long-term," Amazon said in its statement.
The company added that while 70 percent of New Yorkers supported the company's plans, "a number of state and local politicians have made it clear that they oppose our presence and will not work with us to build the type of relationships that are required to go forward with the project we and many others envisioned in Long Island City."

Sorry, I cannot blame Bezos for stepping away from this potential landmine known as government intervention.
I hope you'll follow Brain Flushings and have a few laughs while you get a conservative viewpoint. Politics is the new NFL without the mindless kneeling and this blog will both inform you and hopefully entertain you bigly.
