Primarily Amazon, for not caring about the contractors life, as long packages get delivered and its cheap.

A company has a moral responsability to ensure its suppliers do meet certain standards.

It's wishful thinking to believe that any company has a moral responsibility. Companies only have legal/fiscal responsibilities. If you expect companies to act morally in the long-term you don't understand capitalism.

I sure do understand it, hence why don't agree with it and am a big supporter of unions.

Pretty much this. Capital abhors restrictions - whether moral or legal.
