A libertarian writes,
Subsidies are when the government takes tax money from you by force, and spends it on something you would not be willing to pay for in the free market. Subsidies support questionable or obsolete businesses in the name of the public interest because the government does not trust us to do whats good for us on our own.

And if you know about markets, you know the key to making them efficient and fair is for as many players to have as much information as possible." https://theguardian.com/media/greenslade/2013/aug/16/jeff-bezos-washington-post
But how exactly do free markets square with Amazon's anti-trust activities and the fact that Amazon's intention is to BECOME the marketplace?

Or they had a CEO that was only with Boeing for a year and hated Seattle. -
I like to be a free market conservative that supports corporate welfare for oil companies and huge corporate income tax breaks. Yet thinks Amazon doesn't pay enough taxes and is the evil empire. Cause that's what I like to do.
-
*cough*RaceBannon said:Bezos pays no Fed tax either using the same legal things that guys like Trump use to move losses forward.
Pretty sure Bezos has no personal income at all. At that level you don't
I could be wrong but when but let's be real, that never happens

That’s said. You need to think deeper. I’m a bit disappointed.

So you're saying your life sucks, you can't prepare your own food, raise your own kids, walk your own dog, or live without instant entertainment. Throw in some "spheres" for wimpy fags who can't pull a full workday and you've got a nerd & wimp paradise. Gee. What's not to be jealous of?CirrhosisDawg said:
Mutually adjacent office buildings situated for the purpose of a promoting an enterprise. Food courts. Child care. Dog parks. Entertainment. “Spheres” for out-of-office time. All along the same neighborhood streets. 12 million square feet of space and more being built. 30,000 employees in a handful of square blocks. Yeah, it’s a campus. Just like oregon’s but far larger and way more successful.oregonblitzkrieg said:I like to call workplaces 'campuses.' That's what I like to do, because I'm a retard like that.
It's obvious the next Nerd mass-suicide is way overdue. Can you please replicate the Heaven's Gate event ASAP? Thanks. -

The goalposts keep moving. From Day 1 I said that HQ2 was subterfuge and it is
Boeing would never leave Seattle either
You keep electing morons and this is what you get.
Office space is office space and data isn't locked in a safe anymore
In fact office space will be like a buggy manufacturing plant in 20 years. Who works in an office anymore? Poor people? -

Obvious answer is obvious. That being said, Boeing got in a new CEO that had zero interest in being in Seattle regardless of taxes. Tho I think the Seattle council is fucking stupid as fuck (RIP sonics). Fuck them.Swaye said:
