Steve's Barking; Foarting down (the)Amazon

Amazon ( the company, not the river) is buying Whole Foods.
Report on a business channel, this is bad supermarkets.
Problem with that thinking. Supermarkets are also small margin business.
If Amazon borrows to buy Whole Foods that's a problem, if they use profits to buy Whole Food that's also a problem because Amazon's profits are slim compared to earnings.
Amazon is buying a a Supermarket that's running into trouble because all supermarkets are selling organic foods. They are selling it cheaper then Whole Foods.
Amazon has a great reputation of delivering goods.
All supermarkets are getting into delivery of food stuff.
Question how many consumer will want food delivered, especially produce without seeing it and feeling it first.
Can Amazon intimidate major brands to lower their prices?
Isn't Whole Foods losing customers for shoddy businesses practices?
Is the Whole Food customer the same as the Amazon customer?
Will the local farmer be intimidated by he New Whole Foods?
Can German Supermarkets undercut Whole Foods prices and quality?

Can Amazon survive high interest rates?
Is Amazon becoming a company that's too big to fail?
