Except its predatory and monopolistic and underhanded and sneaky practices, not fair competition.

He went out of his way to buy a radical left wing mouthpiece of a newspaper.
His company employs all the Soviet-era planned economy efficiency models it can. Which is a lot, and new ones every day. These are nearly always bad for workers, and eventually reduce them to nothing more than a unit of production.
The charities are a particular fraud. The company shares no profits with its employees, none with its suppliers, and none with investors. And it has spent most of the last 20 years avoiding sharing any of it with governments in the form of taxes. So it donates to charities for PR.
These are not the actions of people who like America or its fundamental values or the actions of good corporate citizens. They are the actions of an entity fixated on acquiring and maintaining wealth and power at the expense of everyone else.
They said that Alliance Defending Freedom was too much of a "hate group" for their charity to do business with. They signed a brief to the Supreme Court against baker Jack Phillips. Yet, they apparently feel ok donating to this extremist group! Amazon's true colors are on display to everyone here:
Amazon is a radical right wing vulture capitalist institution.
The can go to hell. Democrats, stop supporting these people.
You certainly can't tell given Trump's hatred towards bezos. Probably has to do with the fact that bezos makes more in a year than trump will make in two lifetimes

Remember, Trump was applauded for using the "system" to avoid... er not pay too much taxes. Also note that Amazon didn't write the tax code... any and all online retailers are subject to the same tax code. Interesting because everything in this thread haters comment is pretty much capitalism and market competition.
How did Amazon cheat taxation again? Or do you just whine about taxations when it comes to those that don't share your views.
Reminds me about those that whine about liberal hollywood but yet still go to see movies....
Do you see them selling any guns or confederate flags????
