Does Amazon have anti competitive practices, and if so, what are they?

Seems to me they came up with a novel platform that works better than brick mortar retail. Trump doesn't have shit.
They will probably rein Amazon in on future plays that laterally expand or vertically expand the enterprise. Nothing wrong with that.
I bet if they tried to acquire or get acquired by Alibaba that would be an issue here and in china. The whole foods deal grabs attn.
 
I hate their market share and the inability of millenials to go shopping means many retailers shut down-
but i'd be careful about using anti-trust

There are a number of proposals that have worked their ways through the House and the Senate or have been considered by the House and the Senate. He’d be supportive of such efforts,” he said.

"....found no evidence that any IRS official acted based on political, discriminatory, corrupt, or other inappropriate motives that would support a criminal prosecution."

Isn't that what they call whataboutism?

Besides, those tax scams are all scams. Shut them all down. And nobody avoids taxes more than a Republican. Hating Trump for trashing my mad money portfolio blue chip doesn't make me a hypocrite.

If they weren't targeting anyone, then no one would have found themselves targeted. And it does make you a hypocrite, obviously.

Not really. It goes without saying that I oppose Douchebag Donald on this matter, but, it also appears that leftists in this thread are spouting-off with straight faces here.

There are no leftists in this thread, just right wingers with multiple play ID's, something like a game you would play in 3rd grade.

When was the last time a sitting President personally singled out and attacked a successful American business by name? What happened to the praise of capitalism?

Amazing part is is biggest complaint is they don't pay tax, the guy who lies about and refuses to allow anyone to peak at his tax returns for obvious reasons is hitting on a successful American company for not paying taxes? Didn't he tell us one time he "was smart" for skirting taxes?

States are currently competing heavily to have Amazon come to their State and the President is tearing down the same entity, couldn't it be that the owner of Amazon is also the owner of the Washington Post now could it?

With this disgusting jerkoff in the Oval Office...

...it would not astonish me if it turned out that Trump surreptitiously shorted Amazon stock...and simply is making money by doing what he is doing.
