IB Poll

With news that the Foxconn deal may have hit a major snag, how concerned should we be about Dane County's push for Amazon's HQ2?

A. It's an entirely different industry and company, with an already established track record in the U.S. No need for concern about Amazon.

B. Very. These deals are made way too quickly in an effort to score a "win" and only after the fact do the ugly details often emerge.
