Re:A large proportion of Amazon's US fulfillment-centre work... by tracer4201 on Sunday April 22, 2018 @04:41PM (#16898467)
Arguments like this are naive and pointless. Bezos could dump half his Amazon shares and give that as bonuses to all Amazon warehouse workers. How long would that last until you share the same complaint again? It's a serious question. And if Bezos did that, what would it do to Amazon's share value with shares flooding the market? Would Amazon have to layoff these workers? They go back to food stamps and no jobs, no?

I am not saying the current situation is ideal. I am saying the system is working exactly as intended. Welcome to capitalism. You can't be complicit with all the aspects and security you get personally but then complain when others are reaping the same benefit, just at a 1000x scale.
