I also love how people on this site believe Republican = Bad and Democrat = Good.

People see Republican as hypocrites, racists, misogynists, intolerant, unintelligent, and unapologetic for these failings. The perception is based on truth unless a person finds these qualities as good.
In terms of Amazon, and other tech companies moving to liberal political areas like high tax California, New York, Boston, Chicago, and even in Washington, DC proper...there is an obvious reason:Techies, engineers, scientists, computer programmers, mathematicians, etc. tend to be liberal in their worldview and intellectually curious whereas republicans tend to view science with suspicion. Diversity is not a strength to conservatives despite all valid research stating diversity is paramount to company's success. Why would Amazon place its HQ without the pro-science mindset AMZN needs, the culture which attracts the best and brightest, and most important retaining top talent in a world brilliant people can pick and choose where they work?
I dislike Republicans thinking there are no valid reasons why most Americans no longer identify with them when the trust is staring them in the face.
