Mayor De Lousio Says SHUN Amazon...then puts in a BID to Bring Amazon to NYC

OK, many say Mayor De Lousio is a weasel. That's a bit unfair. He's got more of a capybara head. And, lest we forget David Letterman's appraisal, he's "freakishly tall." Dave was so sickened by this mayor, that he was not invited to be on Dave's show. Consider how often Giuliani and Bloomberg appeared.

You remember De Lousio. He's the guy who said that the FIRST thing he'd do as mayor would be to outlaw the carriage horses in Central Park.

He never did it. But when it comes to crazed homeless psychos taking dumps all over New York city, and other horse shit, this guy comes up smelling like...he knows his shit.

Jeff Bezos, the Mussolini of the Internet, is an interesting assassin. He first gained fame by putting Mom and Pop stores out of business with his great prices on books. "Psst, heard of this new place called Amazon? They sell the latest books at great prices, and...FREE SHIPPING!"

Typical of bait and switch, Amazon would soon declare that FREE SHIPPING only applied on items meeting a certain price total. And then, the front page of the website was given over to something called the KINDLE, which was designed to destroy the publishing world entirely. Bezos made sure book companies played by his rules or not at all, and was not above telling very big companies that he wouldn't stock their stuff if they didn't appease him.

He made sure that used and promo copies of books were listed RIGHT NEXT to the new copies, so that authors could be further screwed out of royalties. Yes, why buy a new book when a used or promo copy in perfect condition was available? And how about setting prices on KINDLE versions, and encouraging every asshole in the world to create awful fiction and crappy, badly researched non-fiction to sell via Amazon? I mean, just to put MORE money into the pockets of the dickhead Bezos who has moved to Washington D.C, bought a town house bigger than Trump's, and could be eyeing a run for President. Or dictator.

De Lousio, could be angling to be Bezos' running mate or something. Meanwhile, the guy is talking out of both sides of his Capybara-like skull.

Support local business by not shopping online. But...let's put in a BID and beg Bezos to bring Amazon offices (and stores and drones) into Manhattan? Ah. De Lousio claims 50,000 new jobs will be created with Bezos around. Right, how many hand, and how many blow?
