I am not a fan of Bezos, nor am I an Amazon customer,,,
However as a lifelong bookkeeper/accounting person I would have advised him long before new & the moving trucks would hve been there more than a month ago.
Total NIMBY move.

As business savvy as Bezos may be, he’s also an acolyte of the radicalism that now threatens his business. He had the wealth and power to stop it, and instead he cast his lot in with them. For him, it’s easy: Move out. For everyone else the decision isn’t so easy. That’s really the problem with men like him: They destroy the political landscape with their failed political and social ideologies and make it impossible for anyone else to thrive, then when things get too difficult, simply move away to spread the same toxic ideology somewhere else.
The decision has already been made and Covid19 has nothing to do with it. The dissolution of law and order along with the business tax made that a programmed decision.
We will now see how quickly Seattle devolves into Detroit
Black Lives Matter in Seattle is now demanding that homeowners willingly give up their property to Black people as a form of reparations because they’re “coming for it” one way or the other.
Protesters called out Amazon employees for gentrification of “their” neighborhood
Bad idea. Amazon employee Are mostly liberals. They would turn suburb liberal
Don’t move these liberals to Tennessee.
Seattle suburbs were already liberal in the first place.
> Seattle’s new payroll tax.
What’s the problem? Doesn’t he want to pay higher taxes like a good liberal?
Folks like him bring to my mind the Globe scene in the Great Dictator, where the powerful little man carelessly toys with a globe of the world, until he eventually destroys it. Oops. Oh well.

They support it they should live with it
The avowed socialist is not really any further left than the rest of the city council in Seattle.
They are determined to wreck themselves.
I was wondering when Bezos would finally get a clue and get out of there. Hope he is not thinking of moving back to New York. That would be like fleeing Hiroshima for Nagasaki. Same mushroom cloud, different city.
When it’s time to move, move - don’t talk.
This won't end well.
Bezos is a businessman and Seattle is hostile to businesses. The writing is on the wall. People and businesses are going to flee the city and Seattle is going to come after Amazon to make up the deficit.
