Amazon paid taxes for the benefit of existing in the US, or didn't it? That's what you call the "land of the free"?

- smt88 9y agoYup. Freedom isn't absolute, including freedom of speech. No freedom in the US includes a right to harm others. Monopolies are harmful.
- TomMarius 9y agoI don't share your belief, but it's common to start splitting the company when it starts making problems - it's not illegal to be a monopoly, it's illegal to abuse it. So again, I don't see any problem with the merger, Amazon didn't abuse it at all.
