Governments need to step up and hammer Amazon with TAXES.

Amazon is killing retail thereby killing communities’ tax base. Amazon isn’t paying property taxes in those communities. They’re killing jobs and the taxes those people pay. Amazon is killing retail and doing great harm to communities.

Bezoes bought the Washington Post to influence tax policy and his liberal views. Hammer him on taxes.

Bezos is wild that Trump told him that his companies are ripe for antitrust action.

That is why Trump is excoriated by lies in his newspaper the Washington Post.

Bezos is a danger the US if not the world.

I only use amazon as a catalog and purchase item directly.

I refuse to use any of their services.

I will not knowingly be complicit in taking down the country.

I see an anti-trust law suit against Amazon in their future.

More taxes?

Are you a Democrat?

Amazon is merely the Sears & Roebuck or Montgomery Ward catalogs of the Internet age.

No, I don’t like Bezos’ political views, but last I checked, this is a free country.

A Conservative buying from Amazon faces the same moral dilemma as did early Christians purchasing less expensive meat in the market - less expensive because it had been offered to idols. Read Paul’s evaluation of the situation in 1 Corinthians 8.

Amazon is not killing retail...they are killing themselves.

When I walk into the Mercruiser dealer and want a specific part that IMHO they should have as stock, and they reply with “we can order it...week to 10 days”, I say “I can order it too and have it in two days”. If I wanted it in two to ten days I would have oredered it myself, I want/need it now.

THe lack of inventory is a tax issue as inventory is a taxable asset.
