There's no inalienable right to a starvation disciplined pool of cheap labor. If Amazon can't make its business work while paying employees a living wage, there's no sound economic reason it should be allowed to operate.

Well, there is nothing stopping Germany bringing in a minimum wage which is set at a higher level than this Amazon pay. Otherwise Amazon has every right to pay at this level.

If you require employers to pay an employee more than his work earns the company, that employer will go out of business or move operations or hire fewer employees.
