Why not an East Coast location? There's 3 international airports right in the NYC area plus we have the infrastructure...

Amazon is putting in San Diego so they have an easy access to cheap illegal immigrant labor market.

Should have put it in Baton Rouge. Plenty of people looking for honest work! We need some investment, especially in some parts of our city!!

Why put a second HQ out west when the plan is for national domination?


They evaluated the situation and they didn't want to get too far from the liberal utopias.


Too low of a "standard of living" otherwise.

I-10 meets the Mississippi River. If your business is logistics, that's a pretty good thing.

Unfortunately, Louisiana's inventory taxes are fricking stupid and it deters businesses that rely on storing that much inventory. It's a giant PITA.

Bezos tried to cross the river on I-10 and left the state immediately.

Honestly, it’s amazing the OP has made this troll last as long as it has. I bit on the shiny hook, so I’m as guilty as anyone.

I mean Jesus, his link goes to godaddy.com
