Ever heard the phrase 'Democracy is two wolves and a sheep deciding what to have for dinner.'?Just like to point out that AOC was elected in the district they were planning on building the headquarters in. So yeah, her voters voicing their disapproval is pretty dang important given they are the most impacted.
Two other questions....
1) How much worse off would those against the Amazon HQ really have been if Amazon had built a HQ there?
2) How much worse off are those who won't be getting a job at the new HQ?
Sometimes a little inconvenience for the majority is worth a HUGE benefit for a minority.
