Dallas makes some sense for Amazon. Dallas is a Democrat city. They’ll get the business related benefits of being in a Red State for now.

So is Columbus, but all they get are warehouses and low-staff data centers from Amazon.
The only upside to Dallas is that it’s not Austin.

Dear Amazon ... we’re all rednecks in Texas. Even the progressives are secret rednecks. It’s contagious. Don’t risk it.

NYC and NYS are refusing to make public any tax incentives being offered. Taxpayers ain’t happy.

Well, the business might be nice ... it’s more so-called “progressives” we don’t need.

Wasn’t long ago New York was running ads here in Texas promising sweetheart deals to move up there.

But Austin has a higher density of millennials, hipsters, and blues bars...

Build the HQ in Nuevo Laredo. They will get cheaper labor and still have some infrastructure for shipping.

As long as it is not Denver I am good. We have way too many left coast leftist swine. Our demonrat candidate for governor has said indirectly through his commercials he wants to turn us into kkkalifornia.
