ONE day? I know some crews can be super efficient, but you cannot cleanse a ship-wide outbreak in a single day. Especially of such a virile bacteria.

How am I supposed to sneak veggies and dip into the theater in my jacket?

I think it goes without saying that Ocean's Eleven wasn't involved in this one. But thanks for the comment.

"specific geographies or market segments" where there's not enough competition.'

I could create such a document using a map of the US and the "fill" feature of MS paint. Please fund my $200,000 study into this issue.

This is why you don't try to stop thiefs for the sake of Walmart. Best case scenario, you help out Walmart.

Mmm, not exactly. The core of Amazon's business isn't touched at all, people can still buy products from amazon in Colorado. Only affiliates lose out. Amazon could still operate even if all 50 states enacted these laws (and they won't, because if 45 do, those last few states become a BEACON for business).

Just be aware, its win freakin win for Amazon. They still service Colorado, you still get your packages, the majority of Amazon's profit is intact. They only lose the Colorado Affiliates, for which they make a smaller percent of the purchase.

Colorado Teen Arrested For Overdue DVD

2 court dates, judges/prosecutor time, data entry, bail, arresting officers time, booking, fingerprinting, 1 night incarceration. You would be AMAZED at the cost of a simple bench warrant and arrest. I doubt the library looked at any of those costs, and simply went with their own costs/benefit (since that's what comes out of the Library's pocket).

It's absurd. They spent 10x the cost in court costs, police costs, bail, etc. Let. It. Go.

Why Was I Banned From Walmart For Not Showing My Receipt?

You're missing the point, just posting a sign doesn't mean I agree. You could bar me from coming back (ie trespassing), but on my exit, you can't force me to do anything. You're corporate policy is meaningless.
