Wow snopes actually admitted to something being true for once

Hmmm $15 hr minimum wage + sanctuary city= too many homeless and businesses leaving???

I thought the left were supposed to be “smartest people on earth “..........

You wanna get Amazon to move, because this is how you get Amazon to move. I bet that Amazon will find a new city for their second head quarters and then start moving everyone in their Seattle head quarters to the new one and all of that will be done in the next couple of years.

When you fuck with companies in your state, they pack up their shit and move. Look at magpul and even GE

I hope they stay the hell out of GA. Our dumbass politicians will entice them with sweetheart tax deals or other incentives reducing their costs to do business while they are competing with local GA businesses that don't get those same deals. All in the name of JOBS, but it won't be GA people getting those jobs, other than the foreigner now residing in GA that will clean their office. The jobs will be for Left Coast commie trash and Yankees they'll import and they'll do their part to change GA and run out of office the same Stupid Cucks that handed out the tax incentives. But WTF do I know... I'm not a fucking politician.

these liberal fucks have been telling us for ages to "tax the rich and big business" .......funny how those same liberals [Cough]Bezos[cough] arent so keen when it actually happens to them.

i hope every cesspool amazon crawls into taxes the shit out of them.....its what they called for afterall.....

They. reduced the original amount of the tax, presumably because they figured they couldn't get away with too high of a tax. Politicians trying to figure out how much tax they can get away with is like someone trying to figure out how much blood they can get out of an animal without killing the animal. That way, they can come back and bleed the animal again.

If the tax is per employee then will this not discourage hiring more employees thus leading to more homelessness.
Fuck that is a tax only a liberal could come up with.

^ I'm sure they actually think they're sticking it to the company. Similar to payroll taxes.

Happy that my kid is where he wants to be and happy..........just wish it wasn’t Seattle? What kind of sick fucktard comes up with this shit? Pop states it pretty plain. You don’t work, you don’t eat?

In the end, it all rolls downhill and the consumer ends up picking up the tab

I did my clinical training in Atlanta and I only ever met 1 person actually from Georgia. Everyone was from somewhere else. And it only got worse when the Olympics came in 96. My wife and I bailed right then.

Tax the rich, feed the poor,
'til there are no rich no more?

I'd love to change the world
But I don't know what to do
So I'll leave it up to you
