^ no property tax and minimum wage....what a mess that would be, plus to me it sets a huge precedent for other business.
just say you were running a widget factory in some city in any state that employs 500 people - amazon comes in and gets a sweetheart deal on taxes and wages that you currently don't have, then what? you approach the local authorities and try and secure a similar deal, they say no - so then do you start looking at moving to some place in order to get a similar deal - or even a better deal than you have today
it will be interesting to see how this process unfolds and what happens when a final spot is selected and the ultimate trickledown effects on the winning community
to me this just seems like amazon trying to squeeze a community for everything
