Not everyone is small girl sex videohappy with the deals Amazon made when it picked the multiple locations for its so-called second headquarters.
Some residents and representatives of New York’s Long Island City and Virginia’s Arlington reacted to Tuesday's announcement with concerns over how the offices will impact their communities and the various incentives (mostly financial) that Amazon cultivated. Among them: just how Amazon's move to the neighborhood will effect the cost of living and strain already struggling infrastructure.

Some Amazon critics point out that all 50,000 jobs and investment from the company was originally touted as going towards one location. Amazon later split HQ2 up between New York and Virginia. Furthermore, Amazon announced a third non-HQ location in its HQ2 announcement in Nashville, where the company will be receiving tax subsidies as well.

Amid discussion of how the influx of Amazon employees will affect an already overcrowded bus and subway system in New York City, one nugget of information from the deal is receiving some extra anger from critics. Lena Afridi of the non-profit affordable housing organization Association for Neighborhood and Housing Development noticed that public money will go towards building a helipad for Amazon. This detail was part of both New York and Virginia's legal agreements with Amazon.

If your city wasn't declared as one of the "winners" of Amazon's HQ2, you might feel good after reading some of these critiques. But, as MSNBC's Stephanie Ruhle points out, even if your city submitted a proposal for HQ2, Jeff Bezos likely extracted something out of your community too.
When Amazon first invited cities to vie for the company's new headquarters, critics labeled the competition as a marketing ploy early on. However, it seems like it could have been more of a data collection scheme than just an advertising gimmick.
