With Its Attacks On Amazon, the FTC Is Arguing With Itself

Imagine trying to demonize Christmas. The Grinch did and failed. It’s hard to put an ugly face on what is glorious. Despite this truth, the FTC continues to try and demonize the much-beloved Amazon.

The strategy its bureaucrats have settled on seems to be rooted in finding fault with Amazon’s treatment of its third-party sellers. The punches aren’t landing, however, and they’re not landing because they’re contradictory. Basically the FTC is arguing with itself.
