    About 6 months ago Amazon started renting the huge (empty) parking lot on the north side of the former Xerox (and Tektronix) campus in Wilsonville. They keep at least 130 delivery trucks there now, and when the drivers start to arrive (and depart) it is a shit show. They haul ass into the campus (15 MPH zones) and haul ass out of the campus. Speed before safety. But as long as Bezos keeps racking up the billions and America keeps receiving their cheap crap quickly, who cares if the occasional dog (and/or walker) becomes a casualty? I feel bad for the drivers.....but then I don’t. We all make choices......and I’ve made the choice to walk my dog there.......and to throw rocks at the speeders. Even the surliest delivery driver isn’t gonna stop to kick and old man’s ass when they’re on an Amazon deadline.......

    Thats such a fucking joke. 1.4 billion to WHAT?

    This is what is going to knock off the talk of America being the country people "want to go to".

    Revolution coming.

    its too bad they dont realize (politicians, Bezos, etc) that if the majority of the country is financially screwed and behind in rent or car payments or tuition or credit cards, they wont spend money, hire new employees, use Amazon as much, and so on. I think I learned the basics of economics in 4th grade
