>How was Amazon able to run and run with no/marginal profits for more than a decade?
Exactly.
A Princeton graduate starts an online bookstore "with $300k from his parents" and it quickly becomes the most valuable retailer in the country, and the world's largest provider of cloud infrastructure services? And Bezos is now the wealthiest man in the world, and started his own aerospace company?
As Q would say, does this seem normal to you?
Repeat the same type of questions about Google, Facebook, and Microsoft.
It seems these 'best companies in the world' did not quickly become wealthy and powerful because they are rare successes in the game of capitalism. But because they are fronts for the CIA, which has been using our taxpayer dollars to build the most powerful, intrusive, pervasive, and controlling branches of their government agency, disquised as public companies.
