The recent fiasco surrounding the building of Amazon’s partial HQ2 in New York is the latest development in the war against free enterprise. Because of opposition from anti-business politicians, notably Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Amazon decided to pull the plug on investing billions of dollars into the campus that was planned for construction in Queens.
The loss of the venture—which would have created 25,000 new jobs paying an average salary of $150,000 per year—marks a significant loss for the area economy and is a window into the future if the Left’s newly intensified anti-business canon is left unshackled.
Unfortunately, such ideals have already been put to paper.

I'm sorry but this deal with Amazon was not free enterprise. Read the details and the big scandal in Virginia is not the top 3 officials in its govt but the Amazon package that was Given by the Virginia Govt. There is no "free " enterprise when you steal forced taxation from other businesses to pay for favors to the likes of Amazon. This is crony capitalism. WAKE UP.
