I wonder if behind the scenes the government is giving Amazon a check for the difference?

If not, then I say, “more power to them”. It’s their dime.

Naw, they’re realizing how much more revenue they can gain if they cut prices for a particular market segment.
Capitalism at work!

I like this kind of thing, because it further undercuts the Left’s insistence on confiscating more to redistribute. Destroys the “food desert” arguments, as abundant nutrition can be delivered in 48 hours for less than the SNAP/EBT amount. Dunno the disposables for cloth, and one can live nicely. Off to run the numbers...

I bet many make more on welfare than many of us do legitimately. With that said, I want a discount, too!!! Being sarcastic.

Not sure who “them” and “their dime” is—the suscribers paying full freight will be subsidizing this—as per post #13.

Sort of how the taxpayers subsidize the foodstamps.

Feel like canceling and probably will.
