We have had a back and forth for 4 pages with details and not one involved after that post has said that, yet you continue to take the simpleton view. If anyone is pushing a narrative with no info it's you.


I'll ask again, what is your vocation, and what is your experience in this matter.

The context was that the only growth was coming from within the city and businesses were not moving in. That's literally what you said.

Is this one of those Trump "take him seriously but not literally" things?

Having a large, educated workforce is far more valuable than taxes to a lot of these companies. Hell, Louisiana was essentially paying companies to move here under Jindal and yet we still have less Fortune 500/1000 firepower than a few blocks of downtown Houston.

Delta's largest hub is ATL and that's where the fuel is purchased from. Moving HQ would have no effect on that. I hope they reap what they sow.

Sorry I think you misread the question. He asked if you have ever been to New York, not New Orleans.

Here's one link outlining a few.

I'm not big on Fox, but WSJ is the preeminent business paper so I'm not sure what's wrong with it.

You're just as bad as the Republicans you bitch about. You discredit people/things before you even read/listen to them because of their affiliation just like they do. Why is it so hard to form your own opinion and actually do the independent research instead of o ly believing one side?

ETA: it's also pretty much common sense to see NY is not really attracting business. Look at where businesses are moving, mainly Texas and some to Florida and places like Charlotte. This isn't really that hard.

That's an example of a business not choosing to move into New York, not an example of one moving out. Of course New York isn't going to bat a thousand every time a company chooses to relocate and they go in with a bid.

Oh, and

GE moved to Boston, attracted to as much as $120 million in public incentives and a burgeoning tech cluster there.


You're damn right they did.

Not this.

They are batting below the Mendoza line.

Below is the exact quote from you. In bold is what NIH quoted and then asked for a link to show any factual data on. Then you provided a link to a story about a company choosing to leave Connecticut for Boston rather than New York.

quote:

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.

Yeah, by default, if companies are not giving in more are exiting than entering.

I do this kind of consulting everyday. I know that companies are trying to shift out of New York. That doesn't always include moving headquarters, but it could be opening another one or moving assets among other things to source less activity there.
