  The government has, not pandemic. The pandemic wouldn't have made a lot of difference. Especially as people would have much less money to spend on junk, were it not for socialist handouts.

  Amazon has been a treasure to people enduring the pandemic, you mean. Had they not been thoroughly competent, the pandemic would've destroyed them. Many large companies emerged worse for the pandemic.

    Sure, but almost all ecommerce companies saw huge growth due to the pandemic. Even for absolutely optional goods.
