You do know that DC has a subway system, right? (Although it needs an overhaul)
As for why to put it there: lots of vacant office space, diverse population, large pool of IT workers, several universities to recruit from, walking distance from a major national airport, proximity to 2 international airports. Oh, and Bezos just happens to own a $25 million house in DC along with the local newspaper.
Schedule an at job for 5 minutes after the meeting starts to send an email (which your smartphone should receive) with the subject "SERVER DOWN" or something else that sounds important.
That part of VA is already expensive. I remember driving on Route 1 (aka Jefferson Davis Highway) 3-4 years ago & seeing condos for sale starting at $500K.
On Zillow, the "cheapest" listing for Crystal City is a 716 sq ft 1 bedroom, 1 bath for $230K. If you search for Arlington, the prices seem better (good luck getting anything at the listed price tho).
Walmart already has disclaimers stating they're not liable for damages if a cart hits your car, they'll just add one for medical emergencies while using the carts.
Alternatively, Walmart could say that that by using these carts you either consent not to hold them liable, or to arbitration in a venue of their choice (most likely at or near their headquarters in BFE Arkansas).
A lot of the cities/areas on the list have some type of public transportation. For instance, DC, Mongomery County MD and Northern VA have the Washington Metro (although, due to maintenance & safety issues it's use at your own risk).
While I'm sure that area is nice, there are several disadvantages: no major universities from which to draw talent (especially IT), not a lot of diversity, no direct flights to Seattle or international destinations, conservative local & state governments, not much in the way of nightlife or entertainment.
Personally, I think Amazon's HQ2 will be in the DC area (Bezos owns the major news outlet in the area and a $25 million house) or Denver (central location).
This recent article indicates the opposite: Kraft Heinz (owners of the Country Time Lemonade brand) set up a fund to help pay for lemonade stands fees & fines:

Since these are non-violent crimes, if convicted of felonies (highly unlikely, especially due to the age of the defendant & possibly other factors, such as race/ethnicity and defense lawyer competence) the defendant will most likely end up in a Federal Prison Camp (minimum security):
1) How much does that freezer cost?
2) How much do the new doors cost?
3) How much will it cost for that carousel system?
4) How much will that patty pusher cost?
5) How much will that chain conveyor cost (unless you're Burger King)?
6) How much will the condiment/bun mechanism cost?
In addition, there is maintenance needed (regular and emergency), they most likely have to be (securely) networked, and there has to be power for all of these systems. It's going to take longer than people think to get an ROI on fast-food automation.

I split my direct deposit up - some goes to a bank, the rest to a credit union. That way, if one goes down I still have access to funds in the other.

They could be using investor money (TFA says they raised $100 million in funding this past September) to pay salaries, operational costs, etc.

There's no way Amazon was going to put their HQ2 in a red state.

Other than a maybe a year of free credit monitoring, you probably won't.
Mushrooms, or some other hallucinogenic material.
Buy a $4-5 door wedge & keep it in your luggage. Barging in problem solved.

The jobs at the HQ2 will not be warehouse jobs. According to https://www.payscale.com/resea... the average job at Amazon pays $100k/year (the median is far lower - $28,446/year according to https://www.inc.com/scott-maut... ).

People need to stop thinking that what you see about prison in movies or TV (even reality TV) is the norm.
1) How much does that freezer cost?
2) How much do the new doors cost?
3) How much will it cost for that carousel system?
4) How much will that patty pusher cost?
5) How much will that chain conveyor cost (unless you're Burger King)?

Unless you're running CPU-intensive task(s), you're not anywhere close to using 100% of your available CPU cycles.
Even better, an infrared thermometer (I have one): https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=n...
Ever watch any of the 1930s-era Disney, Warner Brothers & MGM cartoon shorts?
No way were most of those cartoons for children.
