Teddy Roosevelt call your Office

Via St. Drudge, we learn the Justice Department is looking at Amazon for anti-trust violations:
Amazon could face heightened antitrust scrutiny under a new agreement between U.S. regulators that puts it under closer watch by the Federal Trade Commission, three people familiar with the matter said.
Ya think?

Over the years Amazon has gobbled up dozens of smaller tech companies. We can give you two examples.

When we started as an indy author a decade ago we published through an independent book publishing service called Book Surge. Somewhere along the line Amazon bought them.

Later we joined an online book review and reader social network called Goodreads, which Amazon also bought.

So Amazon is responsable for the publishing, selling and review of our books.

Of course our training is theological not legal, but it seems to us that Amazon is violating the anti-trust laws.

Is Trump the next great Trust Buster?
