If taxpayer dollars subsidize Amazon, and Amazon then offers things that are very valuable to those same taxpayers, they shouldn't feel guilty about buying them. Those artificially low prices are because of their tax dollars, after all.

That's an excuse, and very weak one. Tax subsidy is a minuscule part of the cost savings.
