A city's tax revenue isn't "lower than it should be" with Amazon's headquarters (subsidized by the taxpayer). If they don't attract Amazon, they don't get any money at all. With Amazon, they get increased employment and all the taxes employees are now paying. And all the benefits of having a tech giant centered in your jurisdiction. It's a win-win for Amazon and any cities willing to play.
