Sure. Amazon does the math, and determines that 100M isn't a loss if they can eliminate their competitor. As a result they can then charge less competitive prices, and more than make up the difference. The consumers pay more in the end because the market is prevented from becoming a competitive one. That's Amazon's incentive.

As for Target, etc, I have to pay taxes on those diapers.

Btw, I'll fix that best of link. Sorry, I've been buried.
