I agree totally. I'm not agruing that ethics doesn't matter. But this isn't the point.


That is the point It is not just experience, it is trade secrets and technology that AMZN is stealing. Stealing is against the law. AMZN has had a record of keeping their business as sceret as possible. They do not want to even answer questions by analysts because "It would give away their trade secrets." Yet, they are stealing trade secrets from a retailer. I am sure missing the ethics.

Employees leave all kinds of companies to work for competitors. They take experience
with them. Wal-Mart is being raided (that happens alot, too) and they're falling back on
an Arkansas law to stop it.


William,

Does something occuring a lot make it right? I mean murder happens a lot and so does rape. It is a common practice so let's not enforce laws against it.

You disappoint me at times with your obsession with AMZN, Kleiner Perkins and John Doer. Ethics should matter to you!
