Because it is cheaper to do it that way. Alphabet is getting tired of subsidizing this lemon of a company. I expect Google Fiber won't be around in 10 years.
The typical bootcamp typically charges around 15 K. The student usually spends around three months in training with no income and at the end is on his own to find a job. The school will offer assistance in putting together a resume for the student but after that the student must rely on his networking and interview skills to find employment. Success was very high at first but has dramatically cooled down as more students graduate.
At least with this arrangement if the student never finds work then he is at least not out of pocket any money. The school will be very motivated to make sure its students find employment after graduation in order to receive income.
How does the school ensure an outcome of steady employment at good wages? By being more selective in admissions than other bootcamps. What is breaking the bootcamp model is that these schools are enrolling anybody who wants to come in without regards to aptitude. The end results are poor coders who have dim job prospects.
There is a difference between paying more money for the same thing and paying more money for less. Netflix loses content each time their licensing deals expire. Soon you will be paying for their originals and not much else.
I'd bet most of those 25K "new" jobs would have been the result of moving people from the Manhattan office over to LIC. The rest would probably be filled with low wage support or warehouse workers. Amazon would have pocketed the money and as soon as it ran out started to move the workers to other locations.
It may not mean more net jobs. It may mean that these jobs replace other jobs at companies that pay their share of taxes. If that is the cast then the government ends up with less money for infrastructure, education, etc.
The more likely explanation in San Francisco is that people are crapping on the sidewalk. There's nothing like the smell of human feces out in the sun to build up an appetite.
Dollar stores don't provide union jobs. If they did nobody would have a problem with the goods they are selling but when union grocery stores go out of business due to high labor costs their political friends jump into action to stop the competition.
These stores are thriving because they are offering the products that people want to buy at prices that they can afford. Most sane people would not have a problem with that.
Russians have greater freedom of speech than most American college students thanks to left wing college presidents. But I'm sure that doesn't upset people like you.
I'm sure all of these people illegally migrating will be horrified at the prospect of being given money for nothing. They will all stop coming tomorrow.

The people who give money to these campaigns will now no longer be able to. That means more money in their pockets but it won't change anybody's mind.
There's a great business opportunity if I ever saw one. Open up discos catering to the elderly with Alzheimer's/Dementia.
Why doesn't Microsoft build a map out of all the locations that don't have broadband access? Must be an easy thing to do if you listen to them.
They usually don't sleep much at night. They usually are taking naps waiting for their pages to load.
Where does he get off assigning himself a Spanish nickname. He is just about as Latin as tuna casserole.
Isn't that what Amazon is already doing?

There is no way to blame this on Donald Trump so I doubt you will see many comments on this board.
Maybe a few people will come along with "What about Saudi Arabia?" arguments.

The same countries where it is illegal for a company to gather all of your personal data and sell it to the highest bidder.
Funny nobody on this site ever gets mad about that.
