Here is a classic approach-avoidance conflict. GA gets the Amazon fulfillment center and the jobs, but they come with Jeff Bezos, its multi-billionaire founder, who personally contributed to support gay marriage and mostly Democratic office holders and candidates, and recently gave $100M each to two CNN contributors. Money may not buy happiness, but it buys a lot of political and media influence and leverage. Another camel nose in the tent toward turning GA blue in future elections?
PS: Expect a taxpayer-funded revision to Hardie Davis’ resume to add that he was solely responsible for bringing Amazon to the Augusta metro area.
