The 29-year-old went on to say: “Amazon is a billion-dollar company. The idea that it will receive hundreds of millions of dollars in tax breaks at a time when our subway is crumbling and our communities need MORE investment, not less, is extremely concerning to residents here.”

Ocasio-Cortez is a moron. Let's assume Amazon didn't come, where would the money come from to fix the subway? Tax breaks are not money that the state currently has in its hands. It is future money that the state is not collecting but if Amazon didn't come here, then that money would not exist anyway.
