I don’t doubt that (that they pay sales tax) I am more interested in knowing who pays the USPS driver their double/time ½ pay, for delivering on Sundays.
My UPS deliveries don’t normally arrive on Sunday, like my USPS (in a special USPS truck vs our usual rural PO delivery car) does.
Is Amazon paying for Sunday O/T....or, are my/your tax $$ paying for that?
The USPS have used their monopoly of 1st class mail to subsidize their package delivery system for a long time. When I worked for UPS, UPS approached congress complaining that the USPS was using unfair business practices in order to compete with us. I have a feeling that the post office is going to have a hard time holding on to Amazon’s business. IMO, Amazon is getting rates below the actual costs of service.
