Amazon, Ford, Google, Uber, Lyft, Starbucks - just today, these corporations decided they prefer cheap political pandering to following the law.

Amazon took a serious tick downward when they built a distribution center in Tennessee. Then started charging sales tax. I don't use them much any more, and I won't use them at all now.
Got a bit of a problem. PC’s unreliable (old & wearing out) so I surf the web...and FR...on what I got for Christmas - a brand-new Kindle Fire.
If I don’t use it, I’m going to have to drop off of FR, and I am loathe to do that. It’d take a LONG time to save up for something else.
Me too. They don’t want my conservative money, apparently. Brick and mortar will employ more locals, time to get it back home. I was done with Facebook, Firefox, Target, LinkedIn, others. Now add Amazon.
That is what I am planning to do. -Tom
I’m sure there are plenty of regulations that are beneficial to Mr Bezos that might be suddenly reversed with a phone and a pen... it would be a real shame if that were to happen. Real shame, I tell ya!
I have found the prices CHEAPER than Amazon at some company sites.

Closing my account. I can do without Bezos and he can do without me.
It’s clear the tech oligarchs think they own the US government, and Washington State is already on the payroll.
Have your credit card company put it in dispute. They are great at doing that with unethical businesses
Well that is convenient. I dropped Prime yesterday.
H1ByeBye amazon
These days when I want to buy something I go to Amazon first to check out the reviews, then buy it off of eBay. Eff them!
Mine membership is up in March, same here. I will miss the streaming, but money talks.
Also, as far as I can see, the ONLY thing that Amazon has a “corner” on is Kindle books, and here’s what I think about that:
1. The ease of publishing books for Kindle has led to a flood of absolute crap.
2. Legitimate books will usually have other sources - for instance, from the publisher’s website, etc.
Bezos is a globalist who does not deserve the support of the nation that has made him wealthy.
Take your business elsewhere, as I am doing.
I'll have to try that. - Tom
(Expect about 4 inches of snow tonight.)
You have to go into account management, manage payment options and delete all of your credit cards.
Thanks.
We do that every time we place an order.
As soon as the order is placed, the payment method gets deleted.
We started doing this when their site was hacked a few years ago.
