1. USA has been invaded, successfully, by the KGB and Russia. Our government

is under their control.

Putin and his bunch kill their enemies when they cant control them. I hope we all wake up pretty soon.

2. Hey Trump - I'm typing this on a Kindle.

[Vinca]

3. I buy from Amazon more than I wish I had to, but sometimes it's the only place

to find what you're looking for. I've always gotten good service and fast shipping.

4. I am not a big spender. I bought an extra remote for my tv on Amazon.

I got a great deal.

[Trust Buster]

5. I dont allow morons to influence my decisions regarding anything.

[Sneederbunk]

6. Must have my books.

[TreasonousBastard]

7. Amazon is very low on my list anyway, but whether or not I use them has nothing...

to do with anything el Presidente Chilito has to say.

[B2G]

8. I can't keep up.

Thought buying from them was bad because of their NRA support, now Trump comes out against them.

What to do, what to do...

9. Same. Ive been a prime subscriber for a couple years,

And the wife and I probably get 3-4 packages a week from Amazon.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

10. Same. I rarely use it unless I can't find something in a physical store.

I've had numerous delivery issues with Amazon so they're not my favorite to deal with.

11. I've been a prime member for 8 years... What trumpClown

doesn't get is that if Amazon is shut down tomorrow, another online retailer will take its place. Amazon is like the Walmart of the internet, but I still order from other sites too.

Shoppers want convenience, great prices, fast shipping, and excellent customer service if something goes wrong.

Also, parents who have to choose between shopping online with same day delivery (or 2 day delivery) or going to the store with unruly kids (and possibly ending up in jail and/or YouTube if their kid has a meltdown) will choose the online shopping option, regardless of taxes, etc.

12. We live in rural areas and love on-line shopping, and

Amazon is certainly the biggest service we use. So I have to say we love Amazon.

This revolution-level change of course means new problems, not just solution of old ones. But being able to shop incredibly vast markets from my porch and have consumer-rated things promptly delivered to my door is a tremendous enabler of good lifestyle. So is the vast improvement in quality of manufactured goods as a result of user ratings.

I couldn't find white miso of any quality in my town last week, so I bought an excellent brand on line and it arrived 2 days later.

The days when some surprised visitor to our home would ask if we've read all these books and we'd say basically yes are over. The days when I sometimes fill insomniac hours happily shopping good books, bouncing via recommendation to recommendation on an adventurous range of subjects, are here. We'll never have read them all.

Same for some gasket my poor husband needed for a mower aging with him that isn't available locally. No more long strings of calls and long drives to the city to purchase, with always the possibility of coming back without. In a few clicks it was on its way.

Much as I regret losing the local blacksmith and all that came with that, I'm not regretting the revolution that has made all this possible. Yes, it brings problems and adjustments. Next come solutions. But only some of them before we let other problems get shamefully bad first, of course.

13. Remember a month ago when everyone here was boycotting AMAZON...

...for carrying NRA TV?

[Blue_Adept]

15. So much consistency :D

[kacekwl]

14. Same, his opinion means nothing to me.

NOTHING.
