I-35 could be wider, I guess, but I hate the idea of wider streets. Who will volunteer to see their favorite local spot get knocked down first?
On the corporate welfare issue, I think they'll be fine. There's little point in complaining about national politics if we borrow the same tactics to use at home. it's not like Amazon is particularly needy. Amazon is going to go where the brainpower is with a strong existing workforce pool in their industry. The transportation issue is a bigger one than the incentive one, and maybe if the local government is willing to splurge so generously on corporate incentives they might be better off spending that money on better transportation modes that would no doubt benefit that desired outcome?
