I am PO’d that EBT cards can be used on Amazon.
Does Walmart accept EBT online?
Probably.
GrrrrRRRRRRrrrrr.
So sick of this chit.
forgive me if i’ve overlooked something,.. but...
we thought flaky Flake was retiring, resigning, leaving the senate?
WHEN????????????????????
I wonder just how many politicians Bezos has bought (or blackmailed).
I guess this would also include wealthy early retired people eligible in MCaid expansion states by minimizing their income. Free healthcare and cheap Prime!
I have decided to cancel my Prime Account and will not renew. Don’t really need it. I cut the cord in January and I find that NetFlix and Hulu are enough along with what I get with my digital antenna. I may end up letting HULU go also.
YouTube also has plenty to watch and no charge.
Amazon with this and it’s new foray into Banking is enough for me to cut my ties. They are an evil company.
More freebies!
Amazon will pass the difference on to it’s regular customers. Punishing the rest of us. One more reason to avoid Amazon like the plague.
This is one of the many paths they are taking toward “basic income”.
In my ideal, “basic income” would come entirely from charity. I have no problem with Bezos personally giving $80/year to every medicaid recipient to buy amazon prime or even giving them prime for free. I would praise him for doing it. If he could support 10-20% of the country (the upper-lower-class) to live a reasonable life without working and without government that’s a huge accomplishment (if that’s what he wants) I’ll buy him a beer (or whatever he wants for me to show appreciation).
But, in their ideal, the “income” would come entirely from MY taxes (Bezos has an accountant to avoid the taxes or transfer them directly to “medicaid recipients” or whoever he favors this year so I pay this “income” and he deducts it from his taxes)
Their eventual goal is that everyone gets enough government money plus private services/products so that nobody HAS to work. Their private services/products are written off in tax deductions, so the middle class pays for part of the lower class to live without working, and encourages the growth of that part of the lower class that could work but would have a lower standard of living if they got a paycheck instead of Bezos’s discount. The middle class has to work much more because we are footing the bill for everyone Bezos wants to help - either through taxes, or through payments to Bezos companies that given free stuff to the lower class.
Walmart has offered the best deal on prescription drugs, not just for the welfare crowd, but for all US citizens and senior citizens especially.
I’ll NEVER buy from Amazon again, that’s it. I’m done !!!
