Limp wristed response even from you. No one takes anything you say seriously. You're a documented liar.

Well, if that’s the case, you should be about eliminating unnecessary government spending.

I'd you weren't against private property, you wouldnt be poor. You could build wealth like a normal man, and escape poverty.

What does Amazon providing a discount have to do with unnecessary Government spending?
Is anyone in FAVOR of unnecessary Government spending?

Biden is a pedophile and so is his son.
Or minor attracted person, as the left is building to “humanizing” this type of mental illness.

You think the almost $5 billion they've received in tax breaks over the last 10 years isn't being used to subsidize these membership discounts? These aren't difficult dots to connect.

You're a sad old man. Not even worth the effort these days.

I think the sales and ad revenue generated by bringing in more users subsidizes the discounts a lot more than the last decade of tax breaks.

You should review the kind of shite that Amazon sellls that they proudly say is EBT eligible. The expensive arse nespresso coffee pods we order (now $40 a box for 30 pods) are EBT approved. These nespresso machines are over $300 and up.
Amazon is just taking as big a chunk of that federal money as possible. Just like Wal-Mart and others. As a business model, it makes perfect sense. Government prints cash, you scoop up as much as you can, and the government cash is now successfully laundered into the economy.

If the government subsidizes their Prime sub then yes we should care but this is most likely a discount for those who prove every 12 months that they are on on EBT.
Can you use EBT on Amazon?
I guess the sentiment is, if you are on EBT, should you really be spending money on Amazon?
ETA: Apparently you can use EBT for Amazon. Although I'd argue your money goes farther if you buy your groceries from a local store than some of the inflated prices on amazon.

Subscribe and save for home essentials is probably close to a deal these days depending on how far and how often you have to travel to get stuff from a store.
Either way, poor people buy things one way or another. Amazon sells things they buy. Match made in heaven if you can lock them into a subscription.

Amazon offers sales via EBT. I don't know why they are even charging poor people for prime.

What’s the difference between buying them on Amazon or at Walmart or Costco? Which is what you’re saying - usda guidelines state that if a merchant is interstate and sells groceries, they have to take ebt - so we shall see what happens with buc-ees in the future.

I’m saying Amazon would be foolish NOT to accept EBT. The discount membership is a great idea for them. My bigger point was the ridiculous shite that is EBT eligible. Some of these things are flat out luxury items. Really not a smart way to stretch your dollar if you’re on a budget. The whole system is a joke. It’s not about survival and making ends meet until you can improve your position anymore. It’s just a flat out giveaway with zero limits or restrictions.

Nope, upset that they are getting the same service as me at half the price.

Or that prices are going to have to go up for customers not on EBT.
