Dumbass! Trump is attacking Amazon because Bezos owns the Washington Post, which is doing its journalistic dity in exposing the criminal nature of Trump’s business dealings, as well as the utter incompetence and corruption of his administration.Quote:

Trump is probably right to some extent.
But in our system there is nothing wrong with taking advantage of tax codes and business laws and inefficiencies in the current system to increase your companies profit line. In fact, from what I understand he has done it himself a lot with his businesses by strategically declaring bankruptcy several times to avoid paying investors and taxes.
I think there might actually be a legitimate concern companies like Amazon are too big and having too much power and doing more harm to our economy than good. But unfortunately Trump clumsily going after Bezos the way he has will actually make it harder to intelligently address this issue.
literally i assume everyone understands that the issue is where are you vermit on being a vermitarrd though i havent seen food reviews from u i havent heardddddddddddd about thai tapas bars what is going on here kid

C-Money, what's your take? You got my $$$?
I had an electric/gas company that monopolizes my state. I provided my house with geothermal heating/cooling but yet they want to charge me just as much as a normal house in the ghetto of Milwaukee needs. It wasn't going to happen...we went through legal challenges but it worked well in our favor and anyone that wants to switch. Those are the companies that our American people need to be weary of.
Obv you have zero reason to worry about current tariffs. But in the areas where ag is the economic base those who live there are asking for tariffs to not exist.Quote:

rip real autistic frumpy nerd jeff bezos
Im gonna have to stop posting in this thread tho. The dems can't compete with me and I can't keep giving them a clue
I agree with hongkonger’s comment abouy Trump being correct about Amazon definitely benefiting from lax state laws regarding sales tax collection. But his attacks on the US Postal Service losing money on Amazon deliveries is probably his clumsy way of adding to the right-wing attack on the *public* management of that service. GOPers wants to privatize the USPS and they need a lot of additional public support to do so. Perhaps Trump can get his idiot supporters to agree to support pols who would do so.Quote:

don’t know enough about the tariffs to have an opinion on whether they’re a good idea though i am highly skeptical on anything bernie sanders thinks is good economic policy
like 80% chance trump never follows through though as its all red state voters that would get hurt in advance of the midterms
You don't think something similar to this is going to happen when Amazon monopolizes everything?Quote:

That is how these things work. The bigger companies get the worse it gets for everyone but a very select few who profit immensely at the expense of everyone else, even if you think it is benefitting you in the short term saving a couple bucks buying your kids Christmas presents.
I can't take the moral high ground, because I buy shit at Walmart and Amazon too, but there is a pretty big track record that companies getting too big is very bad for most of us, which is why we have laws protecting against monopolies in the first place, and if you think this case is going to be any different you are very naive.

Actually, it’s not how much debt China already has, but how much our government would likely need China to buy going *forward* to keep Treasury security rates reasonable that matters.Quote:
