Amazon is a massive immoral monster devouring the US economy and replacing it with something vaguely worse, year by year.
Not so long ago, people were saying exactly the same thing about Walmart.
- Bartweiss 9y agoAnd it's still true, at least in some parts of the country. There are places in the Midwest where Walmart is the only place a lot of people shop. There are towns in the southeast going broke in part because they're paying police to act as Walmart internal security. But I suppose two battling monsters beat one rampaging monster, at least.
- nebabyte 9y agoBecause there was no Amazon to compare to at the time. Walmart's reach never once approached modern AZ's.
