Don't forget all the tax abatements these warehouses are getting from local politicians trying to entice companies here. The trucks then proceed to grind the surrounding roads and infrastructure to dust which cost local residents increasingly more. The increase in local taxes from payroll deductions of these jobs almost never cover the added costs of maintenance on this infrastructure. Politicians gain by saying they brought jobs, but never open the books to reveal the long-term costs of these deals.
