    Looks like another fail for New York. People are escaping this state as fast as they can.

    Amazon pulls out of plan to build New York City headquarters after backlash


    Amazon announced Thursday it was turning back on its plans to build its second headquarters in New York City, a company spokesman said in a statement. The move comes after backlash from lawmakers, notably Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who bemoaned the project.

    "After much thought and deliberation, we’ve decided not to move forward with our plans to build a headquarters for Amazon in Long Island City, Queens," the Seattle-based Amazon said in the release.

    Hey, what's the problem? Why worry when everything will be free for those unwilling to work?

    Venezuela was destroyed by socialists in about ten years according the some. AOC is kindly giving the USA 12 years. What's not to like?
