        Is it wrong that I have never and will never use Amazon? This company is single handedly putting malls out of business. I like my community too much to contribute to my shopping mall's demise. #AmazonHQ2 #StonebriarMall @CityOfFriscoTx

        I understand and I hate that part of the equation...but I live in such a rural area @amazon has been a huge blessing for my family. And for book sales, it simply can't be beaten.

        👏🏼 to the 20 cities! I keep seeing ..."as many as 50,000 high-paying jobs for WELL-EDUCATED employees." This should reengage every community to commit to ⬆️ education level of their pop. In 1 generation, an educated person can change the family legacy🤔

        Hehe...but as an Atlantan I'd say we can take amzn without any issues...we already have the HQ of Coke, CNN, UPS, home Depot and a ton of other companies. Tons of skilled people and universities. Check out the size of our city and the population density: http://www.citymayors.com/statistics/largest-cities-area-125.html …

        Know that there is indeed some downside, specifically rising housing costs & increased traffic congestion. And the “tech boy” infestation is real (look it up). But seriously, ATL may not be able to accommodate the spike in traffic (based only on general knowledge of the situation
