The part where they discuss Amazon being more valuable than Sears and is that realistic. Oh how much has changed since this aired.

What a wonderful time capsule. Thank you, 60 Minutes digital team. Excellent reporting from Bob Simon all those years ago. "One of your employees has said that you collect half a gigabyte - whatever that is - of information on your customers every day. That's about 350 floppy disks worth." I laughed out loud.

Hmmm...I like him. In the 25 years since this was filmed we've seen most of the things happen that they said couldn't happen here. Amazon somehow took the place of Kmart, Sears, Barnes and Noble and even Walmart- I wouldn't have ever dreamt that could happen back then.

Considering everything Jeff Bezos has already achieved at this point. And then he still manages to be so normal, as in relatable, friendly, practical with no pretensions. I've never met a billionaire but I can imagine they would probably be very different. And what he has done for his business was pioneering and he is a genius at that.

"He's a good christian man. We're gonna run a good christian..." forgive me, good Christians but you must admit that "good" and "christian " are not synonymous. Look in any Thesaurus. So using this language, one can expect that within their language, non-christian is, in their minds, synonymous with "bad." And they call everyone bit themselves to have been "brainwashed." These methods of attacking one another are beyond childish. But sadly, effective. This is the state that, as a society, we find ourselves living in.
