This is true, but it's not the media/twitter people but actual NY politicians making a bunch of noise. Here's what Georgia had offered: This sort of stuff seems obscene to me, and not the foundation of a healthy society and economy.

lmao Hey, at least you got your new home before the housing market out there got even more absurd.

Local politicians, at least in NY, are NOT happy. Cuomo's planing to do an end-run around local approvals though. NoVA location is not shocking at all given Amazon has enormous contracts with the federal government for cloud services now. It's funny, in a way, to see the hopes of all of these mid-sized cities completely dashed in what was a bs search all along while the people in the cities who "won" are largely shouting DEAR GOD NO HOUSING IS ALREADY INSANE HERE! It's too bad we don't live in a world where one of the wealthiest companies in the world is having to solicit cities with offers for access to their talent pools rather than the other way around. I'm sure the $3B Amazon will be getting could go a long way to improve housing and badly needed infrastructure in those places.

If this presses them to go for it on 4th down more and to go for more 2 point conversions, good.- At least a dozen killed in CA bar shooting
A "good guy with a gun," an armed security guard at a Chicago area bar, stopped a shooter. When police arrived on the scene, they shot and killed the security guard. I don't know that "armed security guard at every bar, school, mall, movie theater, church, synagogue, and literally every public place" is the way to go https://wgntv.com/2018/11/11/multiple-wounded-in-robbins-bar-shooting-police-say/- Official 2018-19 NFL Thread

EMAILS helped shape the narrative of Clinton as corrupt and gave a "both sides" foil to all of the scandals and corruption swirling around Trump in 2016. The Democrats' goal should be expanding political power. If dumb House investigations are what it takes, I'm all for it. If you're concerned about Russia, there are some serious allegations about their influence/control over him and his business dealings that tax returns may reveal. Ultimately it'll probably be a wet fart and yeah I would agree that Dems should focus on good, popular policy like expanding health care! Fortunately they can do many things at once. e: or possibly the tax returns reveal and confirm what the NYT reported recently, that much of Trump's empire is based on tax crimes. Dems should run on a broader platform of enforcing laws against the wealthy and the powerful as a check, but lol they won't (because they are also wealthy and powerful).- Midterms 2018
The Senate was designed to give equal representation to the state governments, but it wasn't over urban/rural concerns. The country was almost entirely rural in 1790, 3.929M total, 3.727M rural. We didn't stop being majority rural until 1920. https://www.census.gov/population/censusdata/table-4.pdf- Midterms 2018
