President Donald Trump is going after Amazon and its business model. Here is a battle brewing based on the significance of one main feature, the Transaction. It asks just one question: How come Jeff Bezos gets to keep all of those billions, dodging various taxes with online business, while the common man in the United States is struggling from one day to the next? This is the crux of the matter.

To understand how we got into this situation, it is very important that we look at the history of the transactional development. In one line, Amazon has wiped out entire chains of economy with its powerful understanding of one main action: undercutting. This is Bezos’s main aim as he marches ahead with a huge growth of shareholder returns.
