Boosterism is more popular with taxpayers (a category which more or less all voters fall into) than your comment lets on.

Saying so don't make it so? Of course there are large camps on both sides that dislike this kind of deal, but I don't think boosterism is universally unpopular with voters. This wasn't a shady, "backroom" deal. Governor Cuomo and Northam have both been extremely open about their support for luring Amazon with benefits.
