Good, move 8500 libs from Austin to Nashville. I am ready to help them pack.

How is this a win? It's going to bring more democrats and leftists to the city.
Red cities/states attracting corporations like this is a long term loser. I've always said, the more construction cranes and high rises you see being built, the worse off that city will be because high rise buildings correlates directly to democrat votes.

A drop in the bucket for that liberal shithole.

Have to agree with you there -- Nashville has turned into a cesspool - I moved there in 1995 - have lived in NOLA since '08 but kept my house in Nashville the entire time - just sold last year. The city is the next Seattle/Portland - brutal - could flip the state blue someday.

Amazon is building a distribution center in Baton Rouge, Louisiana that's 3.7 million square feet on the site of the old Cortana mall and it will be one of the top 5 biggest facilities Amazon has in its portfolio, right up there with their Chicago facility.
At least they will only be using unskilled labor for the majority of their workforce and will not attract a bunch of democrats from out of state, they'll just use the ones that are already here.

So you'd turn down actual economic progress over some dumb personal political opinion? You sound like AOC with the Amazon fail

I do a lot of business in Nashville and have done so since 2000. Last few years every customer of mine has lamented the fact that the city has turned to puke in last 3/4 years. The good ole vibe is long gone cesspool in the making. Tragic

Can these corporations not find competent local republicans to fill these jobs?

I heard a guy on the radio going on about this. He was saying that denser populations directly equate to democrat voters. These companies contribute to increasing population density.
The radio host then said Arizona's building height restrictions allowed the metro area to grow out, instead of upward. He said the more upward growth buildings have, instead of outward growth, the worse off a city will be.
Is he wrong?

That is a lot of fricking Indians to import all at once.

Oracles CEO is actually fairly conservative

I'd bet the median income in Nashville is well below the 110K average salary that is coming from Oracle into the city

I think the "we" is conservatives, not the population broadly.

Be careful what you wish for. Oracle is definitely looking to move lefties around to Red states to change politics.
I heard an interview a few yrs back with a former CEO where he said it's important for the Dems to start moving around into flyover country.
I know Nashville is on that path, but this will just speed it up like these kinds of moves have in TX. Especially the Austin area. Good for home prices, but if you want to stay in the area you'll need a house to move into. TX home prices are going up, but where are people going to move to to take advantage of the higher home price?
