A purported grass-roots campaign to take down Amazon is funded by some of its biggest rivals: Walmart, Oracle and mall giant Simon Property Group

About 18 months ago a new nonprofit group called Free and Fair Markets Initiative launched a national campaign criticizing the business practices of one powerful company: Amazon.com Inc.

Free and Fair Markets accused Amazon of stifling competition and innovation, inhibiting consumer choice, gorging on government subsidies, endangering its warehouse workers and exposing consumer data to privacy breaches.

It won't work. Bezos was a fanatic proponent of customer satisfaction...from day one. It won't work. Amazon forced their rivals to lower prices and speed up shipping. They're upset. It's too late! Amazon won!

Thats legal. Now the coup the Dems tried/still trying is highly illegal. We need a NuremburgUSA to fix it for good.

Brilliant plan by Walmart - The left is often pawns to the people they claim to hate, ensuring they enshrine monopolies further and further with every protest and new regulation

Fuck Amazon!

sinister ... but i hold stock in 2/3. once i figure out how to disentangle my life from Amazon Walmart here i come. all i want is free shipping ... that’s it ...

They learned from the Democrats Antifa LMFAO

Also, why would anyone want to go to Walmart anymore? They NEVER HAVE LINES OPEN. yeah, I know they have a ton of self check out, but when you’re disabled it is hard to do this by yourself with some 400 lb a-hole staring at you getting mad because you aren’t fast enough!

Maybe if Simon Property Group had an ounce of compassion or offered help to handicapped / disabled shoppers, they wouldn’t lose so many to Amazon.

Ironically, it calls itself 'Free and Fair'. Fking Walmart and Oracle DARE TO CALL ITSELF FREE AND FAIR!!!!

Two of the three companies I refuse to do business with. Yawn.

who pays the best wages and has the best working conditions for employees? Walmart had their day in the 'sun' and it was a pretty crummy place to work in the past - have things changed?

As long as there's tome, there will be a giant to face

Amazon vs ...AstroTurf

Mom & pop shops like the Walton’s Store have had enough!
