It is not competition when the Govt gives special treatment to one company and not the rest

President Donald Trump reportedly dined with Oracle co-CEO Safra Catz Tuesday night amid his repeated berating of Amazon— a company with which Oracle is in direct competition to land a Pentagon contract worth billions.
Bloomberg reported that Trump would dine with Catz and billionaire venture capitalist Peter Thiel. The White House did not respond to a request for comment from Business Insider asking what was discussed at the meeting.
Yep. This is what we want our POTUS to be doing, picking individual winners and losers in the marketplace.
We are becoming more like Russia every day, all the faux conservatives must be all happy about this

Yep, just like that. Thank you for once again showing there is basically no difference between Trump and Obama.
No, what Trump is doing is lying about Amazon to affect the value of its stock. That’s the very definition of a stock manipulation, which is illegal.
Amazon does collect and remit taxes in every jurisdiction in which it sells, so Trump’s statements that it doesn’t is a lie.
The US Post Office cannot sign a contact where it loses money on its deliveries so his statement that the Post Office is subsidizing Amazon is also a lie.
Since Trump started attacking Amazon, the value of its stock has dropped over $200 a share.
If I were Jeff Bezos, I’d be suing.

It might not be fair, but it still creates competition when Amazon's competitors gain strength.

We not only have the POTUS picking winners and losers, we have Congress doing the same, then you go to each individual state and state governments also pick winners and losers.
Government needs to butt out of private industries.

Yeah, that 4% market share is just killing you!
Why do you have such a hardon for Amazon? What did they do to you?

Nothing, but they're the biggest and baddest at what they do, so I don't have an issue with their competitors getting some help. I'd say the same if it were Walmart, Google, etc.

So, it is success that you have issues with? They are too good at what they do so they should be punished?

It's not about what I have an issue with; it's about what I don't have an issue with. I think it's a good thing when the dominance of a company like Amazon is challenged a little bit.

It's not about what I have an issue with; it's about what I don't have an issue with.
You don't have an issue with the government punishing a company for being too good at what they do
