    Nothing. Amazon is an evil corporation, anti-labor, too large for anyone’s good, and deserves all the problems they have.

      I agree with the statement but some products I cannot get because they’re exclusively on amazon. The other alternatives would probably be ebay (they seem to not be allowing me to buy things because I’m on VPN), aliexpress, and alibaba.

      However, if the product is a reasonable price on their own website then I would get.

      while what you said is true you cannot blame the working class for their lack of options. sometimes there is no alternative especially when the cost is pushed so low for the consumer. don’t blame people for being reasonable and picking the obvious choice of paying a lower price for an item. it’s the governments fault for not regulating these corporations appropriately. the working class controls so little of the wealth that “voting with your wallet” is not a real solution to anything. the only real solution involves a drastic change in our current economic system.
