Amazon too cheap for VPN subscriptions apparently and too dumb to use them.

I wouldn’t count Arlington in, or anywhere else out just yet.

Bezos is still shopping for a locale that will give him all the freebies.

Closer to do deeds for the Deep State and NWO.

That’ll work.

If its big money, you have to be at the center of the empire.

Will the employees get free delivery of the Washington Post?

“Closer to the people you want to bribe “

Well, yes, that, too.

I think he will choose a site closer to Dulles Airport in Loudoun County, northern Virginia. Lots of high tech industry HQs already(they also like being close to the hog trough), new tech infrastructure, and close to the airport, interstates, and (soon) a subway into DC. There’s also plenty of room to build whatever kind of campus he wants.

It’s already full of executive federal workers and contractors, so there are lots of high end goods shops and novelty businesses to keep his employees happy. NOVA is also considerably bluer than most of the rest of the state, almost as blue as DC, so there might be fewer mental conflicts for Bezos than some other places.

Arlington is nice but it’s commute hell. I hope Amazon picks somewhere that doesn’t sentence most of its lower and mid-level people to spending four hours a day in their cars.

It’s only natural that these quasi-fascist online behemoths would gravitate to Panem.

Lots of illegals in Arlington. Bezos probably won’t have to worry about them organizing into a Union. At least for a few years.
