Amazon has become what it has become because it offers a cheaper and faster product than others. Every company benefits from infrastructure, but they were smarter and more efficient than their competitors and therefore are reaping the benefits of a bajillion customers.

And the government isn't some God or something, we are the government. The wealthy, you know the 1% the Left thinks are evil now, contribute a huge portion of those taxes that keep the rest of us moving on highways or kids in decent schools.
