Plenty of alternatives to Amazon. Ones that pay their taxes, too.

Or buffet style spirituality. Ignore the defrosted crabcakes and the limp discoloured sweet potatoes. Go for the lemon chicken and the asparagus. Ha, nice. Reminds me of the classic Simpsons episode: Brother Faith: "When I was your age, I was a hellraiser, too. My slingshot was my cross. But I...
