Overnight asks why AOC opposed it, then Here4Richter quotes reasons why others opposed it. Not AOC.


In fact, AOC opposed it because Amazon's 15 dollars an hour was, in her words, "starvation wages."

How so? Or am I supposed to use a secret batman decoder ring to read this as a quote from her?

Although Ocasio-Cortez was a vocal opponent of the HQ2 project, many other local and state legislators and residents were also opposed to the plan. For example, speaking to the crowd at a 14 November 2018 protest, New York City Councilman Jimmy van Bramer criticized the proposal, saying: “When Jeff Bezos needed $3 billion, the governor and the mayor found it sure damn quick. The governor and the mayor conspired secretly to cut a deal with Jeff Bezos to the exclusion of everyone else.”

touche, that's what I get for skimming; here's one attributed to her:

In November, Ocasio-Cortez and her colleagues raised concerns about the cash and tax incentives used to attract Amazon to New York.

“Amazon is a billion-dollar company,” she tweeted at the time. “The idea that it will receive hundreds of millions of dollars in tax breaks at a time when our subway is crumbling and our communities need MORE investment, not less, is extremely concerning to residents here.”
