Amazon absolutely crushed a lot of physical brick-and-mortar stores. Drove them out of business.



No, you and people like you drove them out of business by switching to Amazon.


Yes, please tell me about how it's my personal responsibility that a corporation that has millions of employees took over so much.

Was it the laws I passed to make them more profitable? Did I just start burning down the neighboring bookstores?

Absolutely not. In fact, if I were never even born, Amazon would be just as big and powerful today.

Wait, maybe it was all the time they bought out a small company and I told them they could!
