    The only people that support this rip off are the establishment types. Real Liberals and real Conservatives both oppose this ridiculousness.

    1. New York City/State, considering it's taxes, had to do alot to get Amazon.
    2. All corps would have gotten some Standard concession/Hundreds of Millions for jobs provided.
    (and this is not a Volkswagen car assembly plant, but jobs that will Average $150,000.)
    3. Several states/locales had offered MORE but didn't get Amazon.. others aren't even divulging how much they offered.

    The Dems are the party of Wall Street, but every state was willing to give Amazing tax breaks.

    No one is feeding me lies. The poor middle class of Ny will have jobs. The wealthy are scoring heavily and the national debt is soaring since there is no tax revenue to offset it. The poor middle class in Nevada did quite well under a Republican governor who lured Amazon to that state. These are not "fake" facts.

    Tax revenue has increased. The debt is growing at a much slower rate then under obama.

    Tax revenue has not increased, or if it has it is very little compared to the expense. Why compare with Obama? Obama had inherited the most severe recession in 80 years and had no option other than to spend our way out of it by injecting cash into the economy or we would be in a depression today. Trump injected cash into the economy when it was not necessary because the economy was on the rise. And he is spending like a fly to fly paper. We better hope that his policies don't result in a recession because he has no arrows in his quiver to combat it since he has already used them all.

    Maybe it's because it's an obviously dishonest comparison.

    Everyone knows high corporate taxes are bad for the economy.

    Democrats only admit it selectively.

    The accumulated Deficit makes up the debt.

    It SHRUNK under most years of Obama, (down to as low as 320 Bil).
    it's expanding under Trump.
    ergo, it could NOT have been growing faster than Trumpov's quick Expansion to over a Trillion due to the tax cut we didn't need.

    LOL
    A Trumpie trying a fact debate!

    Your comment.

    You said the tax cut was bad for the middle class.
