‘Modest’ and ‘demands’ aren’t normally found together in a sentence.
Their ‘modest demands’ are demands nonetheless and are tantamount to forfeiture.

Yes, but would Texas want Amazon?
Would Texas want an influx of Liberals flooding it with their insatiable needs for government services?
Maybe if they were all sent to reeducation camps first.

Bezos should pull some strings with the Washington state government to pass preemption of such taxes.

“Nasty socialist”
If they call themselves a Democrat you can bet they are at a minimum a Socialist. If the call themselves a a Socialist don’t think twice they are not a full blown Communist. If they call themselves a communist they are of the Pol Pot wing of the Party. The Killing Fields may well come to the USA, just a matter of whom will be rotting on the ground.

For Shylock his demand for a pound of Antonios flesh was a modest demand.
Would Texas want an influx of Liberals flooding it with their insatiable needs for government services?
Contractually agreed upon.
The fact that the flesh would be from Antonios heart was of little consequence to no one other than Antonio who was contractually obligated.
Amazon has entered an implied contract with Seattle in locating there. Amazon will pay taxes as Seattle as a government sees fit. Seattle can negate the contract at anytime by relocating.
Seattle has become Shylock. Kshama Sawant will have her pound of flesh regardless of the consequences to Amazon or the city itself.

If they don’t want capitalism I’m sure Jeff Bezos can move. And will. Seatlle will really then be a cesspool.

Lots have settled in Virginia and were blamed for turning the whole state govt to democRAT.

“This Socialist is showing just how sick she is.”
She and her ilk are feeling their oats. They think they have us on the run. Given our nonexistent push back,it’s hard to argue with that.

I hate Bezos but I hope he relocates Amazon to another city and takes all the jobs it creates with him.
