> Amazon has thusfar had far less scrutiny. Are you quite serious?

  Scrutiny is probably the wrong word, but Amazon faces far less practical opposition compared to Walmart. With Walmart, people will both be mad at them and oppose their stores, warehouses, etc. With Amazon, anger stops at stage 1 usually.

  Walmart used to be in all these kinds of headlines if you look back across the last 10 years; shutting down sites that try to unionize, supplier pressure and mistreatment. Hilary Clinton got a lot of flack for being on their board during her presidential runs. Plus there's a class aspect (People of Walmart) that made it easy for people to proudly say they're boycotting Walmart when they would never shop there anyways.
