Amazon about to take over Washington, D.C.

Make Amazon Great Again. MAGA.

haha...it does fit, doesn't it?

I stopped using Amazon because of Bezos' political motivations. Not putting my money into his cause.
If anyone else feels the same and wants a good alternative, I've found Jet.com actually beats Amazon's prices on most things I buy. They're super easy to buy from and don't have the problem with bullshyt 3rd party vendors (the ones that sell fakes, refurb, etc) that Amazon does.

Yeah, but, Wal Mart owns Jet.com. lol

A monopoly of that size is bad for anyone anywhere, I agree.

I can't lie though, I use Amazon...may I'll have to rethink about renewing my subscription

I don't think it matters if you do. lol

Can't put the genie back in the bottle.

This is a really excellent article worth reading if you're so inclined. I've posted it here before.

We have an office out there at my job and I have to go there a couple times a year. Traffic is already so ****ing awful there and housing prices are insane.

So??... I haven't seen Walmart make the kind of political efforts made by Bezos. Nor are they close to creating a monopoly like people once feared.
If you're just anti-corporation then don't buy any products that come of a shelf and get to farming.

I will read that, but let's not think like that my friend.

Even one vote can make a difference, on Amazon its my account, then your account, then your neighbors account, your parents account etc etc.

If we stick together, we can make anything possible, with God on our side, who can stop us?

Oh yeah? So you're pretty familiar with Crystal City?

I just ran across this link. Seems the Amazon brass aren't happy with whoever leaked this info to the Washington Post, of all places.

Our office is in McLean but yeah. You have to live 10-15 miles away to find anything remotely affordable, but then you have a 90min commute. If I was to move out there I'd get a 30% raise and still lose out due to the housing costs out there.

Wal Mart treats their employees like chattel. They are underhanded and seedy as it gets, too.

Wow...we really do need another real estate crash I guess, as sad as it sounds. Can't seem to learn our lesson. So, living 15 miles away would take you 90 minutes each way? That's nuts.
