Oh Amazon is in New York. New York just pulled its ‘incentive’ package... turned out it wasn’t so necessary to give them more tax breaks anyway...

I've been disappointed by the wages offered in our new community. A $15 per hour minimum wage would be a big improvement here.

IMHO....
People looking for a better wage.
People looking for a single, full time job...rather than 2 or 3 part time ones.
People looking for a job with benefits....super good that it starts on the first day rather than after a waiting period.
People who have been out of the work force see a possible opportunity in their area.

The Repo-Cons have yet to be much concerned about corporate welfare, nor have they cared about the govt. debt it’s added to. Only funds directed at ‘hungry children’ can be brought under scrutiny all while the Uber wealthy are awarded huge tax breaks by corrupted politicians. Welcome to 21st century America.
