Amazon's real problems?

I can never be certain about Trump, other than to be sure what he says isn't what he means, for good or ill.  A "no" is an offer, a threat is often a bluff, and who he works for can be ascertained by noting who is getting richer.  It is business.  The goal is to put someone in charge who is more likely to let markets lead the band.  None will ever do that purely.  Some do it better.  Although, to be an America-firster, there are limits.  For the most part, given the restriction, he is doing well.

As to Amazon?  Perhaps Trump really does consider mom & pop shops a good.  As a billionaire, he doesn't have to worry about prices, taxes, or any of that.  Personally, I think millionaires on up should be forced, a month out of every year, to live on their own (no servants or family) on a moderate typical entry level income, after taxes.  Buy food, figure out how to prepare it, and understand how large sales taxes really are to real people.  Well, and how nasty mom & pop joints get with pretty much outright theft in smaller areas.

Further, half the reason I go Amazon IS TO STARVE THE BEAST GOVERNMENT.  I hope every man and business finds a way to get out of paying this grotesque bureaucratic thieving machine at every level.  What doesn't Trump get.  True, he is a dem (little d, due mostly to being pro-American).  Only elected to build the wall.  Too busy helping his friends get rich (If hopefully through market weighting rather than the fed's thumb on the scales) to pay attention to the punks in congress.  Unless that was always just an empty promise... We'll see if he uses .mil funding for actual defense.

The problem with Amazon is their extreme pro-China stance and their extremist leftism. Companies which go that way should be unlicensed and harassed by the government which the companies attack, the very one that has allowed success.  As with human traitors, corporate traitors need to be shoved out.  Maybe worse.  Business.

But, no.  The right action for the wrong reasons?  A pox on both their houses.
