I wouldn't call this a very clear article on the matter but it is fresh off the virtual press nonetheless:

"It's about a monster merchant in cyberspace with no connection to or concern for civic life squeezing out local entrepreneurs who, at least, act as if they give a rip, especially the surviving Mom and Pops."

I love how mom & pop shops are referenced, but Walmart is mentioned several times. But not a word about the non-CA, small mom & pop e-retailers who would now have to collect sales taxes if they have affiliate programs.

I'm not a huge Amazon fan, but the one-sidedness is ridiculous. There's a reason I stopped reading the LA Times years ago.
