Slave camp? That is an extraordinary claim, which requires extraordinary evidence.
>That Amazon pays so little in tax only shows, to me, that the company Amazon's only concern is to get money and that they don't care about society or humans.
Businesses are always going to spend maximum effort to reduce their tax bills. Perhaps instead of an infinite game of cat and mouse we should consider revamping the tax code to eliminate business taxes. We're not getting the money, we likely never will, and because of the corporate taxes we have special capital gains tax rates. Trying to get Amazon to "pay their fair share" is equivalent to pissing into the wind.
