Well, yeah. Wal-Mart was the first wave, to destroy local, small, and boutique stores: in favor of crap chinesium that is sold 'slightly cheaper'.

Amazon moved in, used the agreements with USPS and China to cheaply (read nearly 100% subsidized) agreements to bring dangerous shit. But hey, with Scamazon Prime, it's 'free shipping' (somehow free and $140/yr are the same thing).

A package hub would be better. When I can order things to the store, is a lot easier and also has better security than "on front door". But people demand convenience.

And naturally there's the climate devastation these millions of miles driven to deliver shit. And that's also exacerbating the workers with trucks that had intentionally ripped the AC system out.

But the ones making decisions aren't for doing the good and smart thing. They're just for doing the profitable thing.
