“Think of all of the business that those lower tax rates COULD have brought into these states/communities...rather than just cater to Amazon...who lobbies DC for higher minimum wage, pilfers the USPS (by subsidizing with OUR tax dollars) and, in reality....lowers the standards in communities they move in to.”

I’m sure the mom and pop stores could have used that sort of advantage. Seems like it should be illegal to cater to just one hugd company, it’s like encouraging a monopoly.

The only company that is giving Amazon any competition is Walmart and they better step up their game.

Bernie Sanders is going after Walmart, don’t ask me for what, does he need a reason?

Wonder how much Amazon has contributed to him?
