I wouldn't call that a lot of jobs.
250 construction jobs over an 18 month period and up to 45 immediate full time employees in a town of 63,000. Hundreds of millions of dollars into the local economy for $17 million in tax breaks over a 10 year period.

...even with the tax breaks, Facebook will become the county?s largest taxpayer after local utilities and railway. Rutherford County, with a population of about 63,000, has an unemployment rate of 14.5 percent.
Are you seriously implying this is a bad deal for the town/state? Seriously?
