    All the people bitching about Amazon leaving NYS are the same fools that elected the morons who scuttled the deal. You got exactly what you voted for . Social Democrats are like ISIS, they destroy whatever they touch.

    I think AOC needs to pull her head from her arse. Loosing billionaires will cripple New York. This could be the beginning of many others leaving.
