Andrew Cuomo Speaks With Jeff Bezos, Furiously Trying to Win Back Amazon
The governor of New York has called Mr. Bezos and other Amazon executives to persuade them to resurrect their plan to build a campus in Long Island City.

You bet your ass Cuomo is, but really would you if you were Jeff Bezos? In true New York form, we all complained the Amazon deal out of existence. Yes, that’s right! If it’s not the people annoyed by the additional impact to their commute, it’s the royal f-ing of the unions trying to get a piece of the action.

Yes, Amazon can suck, but this city could do worse then to add a bunch a jobs at a time when the US economy is really built on air. Strangely, by supporting Amazon in NYC, we are actually supporting a company that manufactures their own products oversees, giving jobs domestically to  support warehouse, shipping and logistics of retail goods. Further they will ravage our tech sectore and squash any hope of the small startup culture building something to dethrone them!

Summary:
Without opportunity there is NOTHING. Beg them to come back and hope they do. From their investment, build a culture that develops AROUND them and the resources they bring to the community. Find ways to have them integrate and contribute. If they don’t find creative ways to fine them to off-set the tax benefits. Again, without the opportunity, you don’t know what good can come from it.
