Re:Amazon's 401(k) Plan Is Pretty Brutal, Too

The 401k is a feature not a bug.
Amazon managers abusing the workers in the warehouse is a feature not a bug.
Women not being promoted within Amazon is a feature not a bug.
For Jeff Bezos to claim he didn't know about this is a feature not a bug.
At this point, anyone who thinks that this behavior was all a big mistake really is in denial, or intentionally ignorant (looking at you, Jeff)
Update: Ah, the hate downvotes: I wonder exactly why people wish to downvote?
* Is it because they don't want to believe that Amazon is behaving badly?
* Is it because they think that I am some sort of Amazon hater and they want to punish me?
* Am I inaccurate in some way?
Full disclosure: I am buying Amazon stock, because any company that is this tight with the dollar is figuring out how to extract blood from a turnip. I also use Amazon AWS all the time.
But if you downvote: do the favor and add a comment, and attack me. Personally if you like. Get a little ad hominem rage venting. I don't mind. Just own the downvote.
