jgirard 's review for:

Fulfillment: Winning and Losing in One-Click America by Alec MacGillis, Stefan Alexander MacGillis
3.0

A bit breathless and bit of a hit piece. But interesting. Would have been much better if it had explored a different thesis than “Amazon is bad”.

Author even had the much more interesting alternate story laid out and just didn’t chase it down: is the government or the private citizen a better allocator of resources for the public good?

That question was left unexplored in favor of turning Amazon and Jeff Bezos into cartoon villains.
