50,000 new non-McJobs as well as the follow on service jobs is no benefit to the local population? Tell that to all the non-silicon valley mini-tech hubs like Austin, Seattle, Miami, Dallas, etc. If amazons foothold is the seed for a new techhub to emerge, that's a true net boon for that city and its people / culture.

It's beneficial in an overall sense, but it sucks for the many individuals and families who will be gentrified out of the city, because they don't have the skill/background/age/race/gender to partake in the new orgy.

When attempting to counter an un-alloyed good like "50k new high-paid jobs" with potential negatives, can you please be clearer about the alternative outcome you desire? I can't tell from your objection whether you:

1) Support the 50k jobs, but want extra effort to be taken to support existing populations/communities

2) Prohibit the 50k jobs so things can stay the same

3) Let the 50k jobs go elsewhere so they're not a local problem

4) Something else entirely that I'm missing

<< skill/background/age/race/gender to partake in the new orgy.

The word for that is injustice.
