“We just made history in beating Amazon and the Chamber of Commerce by winning my re-election to City Council as a member of Socialist Alternative,” the event page says. “Seattle’s voters have shown that they overwhelmingly support taxing large corporations to fund housing and vital services.

“We estimate that Amazon could save -B in last mile delivery costs, by further expanding its AMZL network,” the report says. “Amazon will be able to reduce its reliance on [third-party] services like USPS (30% of ’19 AMZN U.S. deliveries) and UPS (20%) which mitigates risk of potential supplier price increases.”
“We don’t need you to be on the upgrade treadmill. If we made our money when people bought the device, we’d be rolling out programs left and right to try to get you to upgrade.

“We’re pleased to see the DoD recognize the need to take corrective action, but we’re concerned that the proposed approach is not designed to provide a complete, fair, and effective re-evaluation. Both earlier in the adjudication process when we submitted 265 questions to the DoD that they refused to answer and in our protest where we outlined numerous significant flaws in the evaluation, it’s been clear that there were many problems with the DoD’s initial decision. Instead of addressing the breadth of problems in its proposed corrective action, the DoD’s proposal focuses only on providing Microsoft a “do-over” on its fatally flawed bid while preventing AWS from adjusting its own pricing in response to the DoD’s new storage criteria. This attempt to gerrymander the corrective action without fixing all of the serious flaws pointed out in our complaint raises significant questions.”

We will continue expanding our delivery capabilities and are adding more zip codes rapidly.”
“Towards the end a security guard?walked by me and I was pretty sure he was gonna shut me down,” Willingham said. “But he just said hello and kept walking.?Figured it would be pretty hypocritical of them to try and stop me when they’re the ones trying to bring mass drone delivery to the world!”
