Google just spent $2.4B to takeover Chelsea Market to expand their footprint. Chase is knocking down an office tower about as tall as One Shell Square to build a bigger one.

JetBlue HQ is NYC, btw.


Did you just name 3 things that are already in NYC?

And to the OP et al, the tax cut Ol Cagle referneces is a cut on fuel taxes, not corporate taxation


Just feel like I need to reiterate this.

That clown Cagle was referring to a fuel tax currently in the Georgia legislature.

Good. GA screwed AL for the delta hub back when, and it helped them out pace us. Now we take it back. Let's ride! (Fly)

Rep. Tim Ryan, D-Ohio.

The only passenger airline out of the Y-town regional airport has just ended flights (Allegiant Air) and he is suggesting that Delta move its headquarters to NEOhio.
Yeah Timmy, good luck with that.

So, delta is going to move from GA because of a small tax issue, but they will move to the second most unfriendly state for business? Go play in the streets.

ETA: It depends on the source but some have NY as the worst state for business.

Even with no tax benefits in Georgia, they would still pay less in Georgia than in New York.

$5.5B of business investment by 2 companies doesn’t count because the companies are already there?

No because the specific question posed was naming businesses that have moved operations there. Capital investment is not moving operations.

the world's largest airline moved from NYC circa 1970 due to
an unfavorable tax climate, among other things

Amazon is taking 360,000 square feet of space in Manhattan's new Hudson Yards complex to house its advertising team, which handles marketing, product, design and engineering. The group will also share space with Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Amazon Fashion staff, for a total of over 2,000 jobs over the next three years. The move, which follows announced plans to open its first New York State distribution center (in Staten Island), is separate and apart from Amazon's search for a secondary headquarters.

Georgia didn't screw Alabama for the Delta hub. Brimming with it's iron industry really wasn't that interested

Dude nobody is saying that business doesn't go to New York, it's the financial hub of the country and one of the largest in the world. However, due to the high taxes many more are moving out rather than deciding to move in. Now, in some cases the the extra costs are worth it for other reasons, but that's the exception not the rule.

What industry are you in because this is part of what I do for a living so I promise you I'm not just making shite up.
