I don't know what the fetish is with Amazon. The article is ridiculous in suggesting Amazon putting Walmart out of business when it only started making real money in 2016. Amazon made $2B in 2016 and $0.6B in 2015, lost $0.2B in 2014. Walmart made $13B last year... but the article says Amazon is the one with the better mouse trap and "impervious to the natural life cycle of a conglomerate"? huh?
With the toxic culture, Amazon is going to go Uber someday. The Whole Foods acquisition is probably the start of Amazon taking a step too far.
