How is Amazon stealing from me? If I want to purchase their goods or services we agree upon a mutually acceptable price and make a voluntary exchange. If I dont want their goods or services, they dont kick down my door and take my wallet.

Before we go further it's important to clarify that I'm 100% for free market capitalism. The ability to understand the way your enemy thinks does not equal thinking that way yourself. However, I'm certain you'd agree that Amazon is hardly capatalistic, they are crony-capitalism. Do they not petition the government to intercede on their behalf? Do they not collude to restrict competition? Are they not the beneficiaries of tax structures, rebates, kickbacks and other huge rents collected from the state?

Are they not supporting continued "lockdowns" because it has enriched them? The mega-corps are happy as can be that so much of their competition has gone belly under. Competition = lower prices and better quality, and is the bedrock of free enterprise.

Well put.
