        I personally believe the platform provider needs to be accountable because they take a cut for the convenience and safety of the transaction.

        Working for a small business, Amazon has absolutely allowed for the collapse of local retail. But let’s be real, people put local retail out of business. People chose convenience over community. They’d rather have it delivered to their door, or to their trunk, instead of actually taking the time to walk into a store that’s not a Target or Walmart.
