[QUOTE="dmac1, post: 3449838, member: 60252"] Amazon isn't taking jobs from anyone. It still takes as many people to produce the item- Amazon changes nothing about that. Amazon hires people to pack and ship all those items, and shippers hire more people to deliver them. It's got to be close to a net of zero jobs lost, and since most retailers merely cut back, and don't shut down due to Amazon competition, Amazon may add net jobs to the overall economy. If the alternative is Walmart, I prefer Amazon. Most of what I buy except exempt food items gets state taxes added if it is sold by Amazon and items sold by third parties aren't usually much cheaper than buying locally. But with prime membership, I can save lots of money while getting items shipped to my front door while avoiding driving and saving time. [/QUOTE]
