Or, hear me out here, The Federal Trade Commission orders a study done and the study corroborates the general sentiment here that Amazon is abusing their power in the marketplace. So, the FTC then sues Amazon.

Your 'feelings' about how this works only matters to you. The US branch of oversight for trade has declared (with a lawsuit) that this behavior is unconscionable and either is or will be illegal by the time this suit is finished.

You're welcome to dispute the FTC and the crowd here on HN, but you need to provide some sort of data to back up your claim of: Sellers should just stop using Amazon...the issues will correct themselves.

The FTC's suit alleges the exact opposite of what you allege. The FTC states that there is harm to the entire economy if Amazon is allowed to continue this practice.

Please cite the studies, data, or metrics you used to claim '...will correct themselves."

Thanks @endisneigh.

Seems fishy ... Good thing that even corporations like Amazon get a day in court.
