What will happen to all the people who work in the industrial b-t-b market? I don't mean the office workers and execs, but what about those who manufacture, package and deliver these products? Will they lose their jobs as a result? That doesn't strike me as a good thing either. And please, to anyone who's response will be to the effect that these workers will just have to find new jobs, or they should go into education to become more skilled, or it's "just the way the market goes". These are people's lives, and a lot of them will rely on these jobs.

No one is owed a job, as many can attest to since even before Amazon. Unless you are suggesting communism, people have the right to try whatever business opportunities they like. You in turn are free to boycott them if you feel it is immoral.
Good luck convincing enough people of your way of thinking for Amazon to actually notice your existence. And that
too is your right in a free country.

Also, what knowledge of this business area does Bezos the Bozo have? Sure he can hire in people to research, but what's the point when there is an entire infrastructure already in place? I like Amazon for their range of products, and their prices, but I'm not that much of a fan that I'll defend everything they do and jump up and down with glee when they unveil new plans and ideas.

In that case, Amazon will lose a lot of money and totally fail and turn tail whimpering like babies, so you have nothing to worry about.
Either that, or Bezos isn't the Bozo you think he is...
Make up your mind.
