This fine-as-tax trend is worrying. I propose crypto burn instead. It hurts the wrongdoer while not creating bad incentive for regulators. Win-Win.

Amazon+Google should just team up and lease an uninhabited land somewhere. Max autonomy, max speed. No doubt they can create a singapore in < 5 years.

And just as in that thought experiment, it is entirely obvious how to get to an outcome that is better for everyone: cooperation.

Ya its called being a cartel. 1000+ members cartel (city/state/national govts) is just extremely unstable and short lived. Think Amazon HQ2, Brexit and others as trust busting done by free market. The Cooperation is not going to work.

Now they're turning that all away. It's such an irrational decision that if I were Amazon, it would raise a big red flag for me as well.

Why even pick NYC in first place ? That place, and other 1st tier cities, are red tape hell. Amazon should have known this.
