The future looks shytty.

This is on the municipality, not the company.

But, you're right.

This isn't news at all. Cities have been doing this for at least 15 years. You give a company a tax holiday for agreeing to build or locate to your city.

Walmart has been doing this for probably longer. They get a tax holiday for say 10 years from local government. At the end, when the government says "OK, now you have to start paying taxes" they either shut their doors or move their store right outside the city limits. This has been happening all over Kansas in small towns for a while now.

Yep, the other problem is that a lot of cities are finding out that getting a few thousand new workers spending money in your city doesn't pay for the new infrastructure needs you now have. So, those workers now need new streets, plumbing, and power lines running to their new houses and cops to patrol their new neighborhoods. Never mind the local traffic problems they're going to cause.

This is exactly what Obama fought against but hey Obama never did anything for Black people though.

Wait til he wanna run the country and gives Trump 40 mil or have Ivanka sell her goods on Amazon for free


You hard headed fools asked for this. Now, enjoy it. I feel 0 pity at all. Amazon about to hold the country hostage and Black people about to get fukked I leven harder.


I have talked to people that work for Amazon and the pay is shyt, vacation takes forever to accrue and u get about 4 days of vacation per year.


Obama never did anything for Black and poor people though.

There was a few orders I made and I lied and said I never got it. I would get a refund.

Because of amazon's massive growth, they have to do mass hiring and a percentage of the work force isn't the brightest and a percentage of their infrastructure and protocols are susceptible to being finessed. Case in point: I ordered brake pads/rotors. The first package got damaged in transit, but they never sent me an update. The second order was in transit for 4 days when it was supposed to be delivered in 2. SO I complained. Eventually I got the brakes the next day but 3 days later, I get an email saying my order was cancelled and I got a refund The order was $359.00.

I finessed best buy out of a $1000 tv like this a couple years back. I picked up the tv, but for some reason they never tracked it and refunded me my money

If they go to Fresno, and the same housing fukkkery happens that did in the bay, it might be over for anyone trying to move to California making less than 40k that doesn't want to live in the desert. That's not even factoring in what the bullet train is supposed to do for commuters.

We should start a month without Amazon. And see if we can take them down

This is the type of shyt that developing countries do to attract foreign investment. A race to the bottom and after a 10 year tax holiday expires the company just ups and moves.
