Why not have the delivery and logistics of goods just exist as a general public service?

Then put the potential profits made into running a better society.

Because govt normally does poor job in aligning incentive and effort for efficiency. Amazon will try to be most efficient because they are getting back all the profit out of it.

Govt should make sure labour, monopoly laws and taxes are aligned with society's expectations.
