[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If Amazon was smart they would go to Hagerstown. A warehouse distribution hub close enough to DC and Baltimore (harbor) but inexpensive and has beautiful open mountain valley land.[/quote] If you're trying to completely destroy Hagerstown for the people who live there right now, dumping 25,000 $150K jobs into would certainly do it. Because almost overnight, no one currently living in Hagerstown would be able to continue doing so. Plus, the Port of Baltimore isn't a factor. 95% of the cargo moved through there is automobiles, natural gas, coal, or petroleum, or industrial materials from Europe. Very little in the way of household consumer products come through east coast ports. That stuff is all west coast, coming from China. [/quote] There are not $150K jobs for all 25,000... you are dreaming if you think Amazon pays everyone that. These are not all tech jobs and they only pay some that much.[/quote]
