with the antitrust lawsuit now looming, Amazon is seemingly less motivated to appease the agency
Nothings going to happen. See when you're dealing with a trillion $ company which is bigger than some economies in the world. Its has the power to put a dent on US economy. If they just threaten to leave US, every goddamn public servent will become Amazon's Lil bitch.
TLDR: Amazon will never go down and they own every goddamn 9-5s
If they threaten to leave the US, it will be seen for the very obviously empty threat that it is, which is why it won't happen. There are much more subtle methods of exercising power.
Companies more powerful than Amazon have been broken up by the FTC.
You sure about that ? Just talking shit make it a fact.
