I wonder if people who live in DC think the same about their federal tax dollars, it’s roughly the same flavor of “local”

Just going off the "TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION" license plates, I'd guess not. Federal tax dollars are spent according to the whims of literally everyone else in the country except them.

It's a local business to nearly everyone in the US. Anyways, it's not a local shop as the person you replied to called out.

Shopping at Amazon perpetuates the monopolization and consolidation of players in the economy. That means less competition. That means less incentive to improve the value they provide.

Seems pretty clear to me that shopping with Amazon makes things worse for everyone in the long run.
