[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This debate is silly and misses much. Why are some NYC folks protesting Amazon's arrival? Why are some relieved that Amazon is not coming to White Flint? Because Amazon would bring a substantial need for more Montgomery money on roads, schools and public safety. The fear is that the tax revenues Amazon would bring do not offset the costs. By incentivizing open spaces thru lower taxes, Montgomery avoids those expenses. [/quote] So turn the country clubs into public parks if the country club owners can't afford to pay the market rate on taxes. Subsidy avoided, public good increased.[/quote]
