I have always wanted Amazon to have a store so I can play with their kindle products before pulling the trigger. Hopefully this deal can make that happen.

Are you aware you can do exactly that at Best Buy?

No actually I don't. Haven't been to one in years. Thanks for the tip.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

"Too big to fail" is a term with only political meanings. Best not to let it cloud one's thinking.

No, systemic risk and global financial collapse are not "only political". But that said, your assertion, your burden of proof. Convince me.

This too big to fail is a random assertion coming out of nowhere. Several large corporations have failed from A&P to Enron without any effect on global economy. Also, the fact that government interference leads to any better outcomes is not evident. What exactly has happened to Detroit today ?
