Capitalism is on it’s death bed. Time to usher in the Leftist state of misery and poverty.

But they do some things extremely well and efficient, and sometimes that fricking matters. Pisses me off when you order direct and they can’t get their shite together to send it in 2-3 days. I don’t need it in 3 days, but get it shipped in 2-3 so I get it in 5-7 days max.
Absolutely they do, but with this people need to get comfortable with Amazon building distribution centers and satellite delivery centers every 50-60 miles across this country. Folks in Covington/Mandeville are throwing a fit over unincorported wooded area off I-12 being rezoned to warehousing, but they also want same day/next day delivery. The less you buy in person, the more warehousing space will be needed.

They are getting their asses kicked by Amazon and are blaming this on the shitty economy. eCommerce has been booming

Is it and the only profitable part of the business. Amazon.com is just ran to break even. The growth with buildings will slow down and eventually they will make money on that part of the business.

I see the packages first hand, and people are not slowing down spending on amazon, if anything it has picked up.

Amazon going their own way with a majority of their distribution definitely hurt them, but AMZN is down nearly 26% year to date. The economy being shite absolutely is having a big effect on Fedex.

Remember when we were told inflation was only transitionary?


But then china decided to follow a zero covid policy and kept much of the country shut including factories. We should have never developed such a reliance in China. I blame Nixon.

So, you're saying not to vote.



No. Show up, vote whoever you want in. Do write ins or vote for the least likely candidate, just never anyone who wants to sell our influence and play that filthy fking game.

Politicians should be protecting us. Not selling us, the country, and America itself out.

The main thing is they see your vote and also see it's not going to them.

Amazon has their own planes.


Amazon only owns a fraction of the planes painted with their logo and operate zero of them. They are all contracted out to various airlines who physically operate them.

FedEx is one of the largest airlines in the world based on number of aircraft. They’ll be fine.
