It is due to ancillary jobs created by Amazon. All of those employees need an accountant, car repairman, food, etc.

Page 14: benefit cost ratio: 6.3...every one dollar spent by state and local government comes back as 6.3 dollars in tax revenue.

I was watching a segment hosted by Stuart Varney and he was explaining that as well.

Does this work as well with the sports stadiums people always complain about government paying for as well?
