AMAZON puts you in a box where you look at BOXES all day

AMAZON...the online wonder store. We wondered what was in store when they stole into the mp3 download world.

Oh, yes. They made sure to steer everyone away from CDs (their sellers were discouraged from selling used vinyl of course). They made it so mp3's were the thing to buy, and used their economic clout to lower the prices (at first) to tempt everyone to download. With the artist getting a penny and they getting much more.

AMAZON then developed KINDLE, for downloading books...and made sure to kill book sellers by steering customers to the downloads AND to anyone selling used and reviewer copies cheap (which gives no royalty to the author or publisher)

I could go on with all the devious and hurtful ways giant AMAZON has made friends with the consumer, and seemingly been a savior for people who want the lowest price, but is anyone listening? Not when their publicity machine makes them shine. Remember how Hitler's annex of other countries was seen as logical and ethical? How his "Master Race" views on ethnic cleansing were also seen as something positive? Certainly nobody wanted to fight Hitler about it. Especially as Germany kept getting stronger...and stronger...and more dangerous.

Here's beautiful AMAZON supplying JOBS for our economy!

Aren't they lovely? "LOVELY...LOVELY...LOVELY..." chant it like the guy in the movie "Frenzy."

Re-read that line about where you can find a job....

"...at 17 fulfillment centers for tasks that include picking items from warehouse shelves, packing them for delivery and operating new technology installed to streamline operations."

Yes, that's what the middle class wants. Jobs that any brain dead factory worker can do. That any high school grad can do. And did AMAZON say that they were going to be paying anything more than minimum wage? That they would hire anyone over the age of 20? That they wouldn't work these people like Mexican donkeys until they quit? Do you really want to be stuck in a box moving boxes? Well, that's what you'll be doing, Mr. Author, Mr. Key Grip, Mr. Sound Engineer, Mr. Publicist, Ms. Secretary, Ms. Vice President for Artist Development, Ms. Editor...you lost your job in the movie biz, in the office of the record company, at the bookstore...because of AMAZON, and now you can go move to where the giant box is where you can move little boxes around. These are shipped out to happy people who think AMAZON (and GOOGLE and FACEBOOK etc) are lovely Big Brothers. "Lovely....Lovely...."

OH yes...and the post office continues to suffer because AMAZON never supported them. "Lovely...lovely....LOVELY..."
