    Amazon is a publicly traded company.

    Jeff Bezos does not own Amazon.

    He owns some of the stock in Amazon.

    Amazon did not give millions of $$$ to the DACA people, Jeff Bezos and his wife did.

    Amazon is owned by stockholders, people who have their money invested in stock, Mutual Funds, their retirement funds, etc.

    Amazon can not control anything Bezos does with his money.

    So why do you want to punish all of the stockholders for what one individual did?

    Bezos, according to CNN Money, has sold large stakes in his own company twice before
    in recent years, but still owns about 16% of Amazon, which is now one of the five largest companies in America by market value.

    Bezos is chairman of the company, he calls the shots. Amazon not only hires DACAs, they are backing one of the lawsuits to stop Trump from ending DACA.

    84% of the stock is owned by other people who did nothing wrong.

    People have their life savings and/or their retirement funds invested

    and you want to hurt them to get at him.

    That doesn't seem fair.

    No, I want to get at them. They provided the capital for Jeff Bezos to start this company that was going to put many of our retail stores out of business and hurt their shareholders. They put Borders Book Stores out of business. Those wonderful book stores. I have no sympathy at all for Amazon investors.

    YOU calling for a boycott of Amazon is like an ant declaring war on a herd of attacking elephants.
