What did you think was going to happen when the shutdowns you've been cheering on turned Amazon into the company that WalMart is scared of, dummy?

I'm not one to put the cart before the horse, but there's a pretty decent chance that once Trump's out of office and isn't distracting everybody from what is really going on behind the scenes right now that Marcos and I actually see quite a bit more eye to eye on things.


It's not just Amazon either, buddy. I haven't been able to afford to shop where I worked since 2009. And Amazon pays better than any of those jobs did by quite a bit. K-Mart paid $8.25 per hour overnights, and hadn't given out any raises to employees for 8 years before the store finally shuttered its doors. $15.00 to start is downright generous when their competition pays paperboy wages to adults that need to carry and balance a schedule of 2 or 3 jobs to survive.

Still working 60 hours a week, many of them... Just not at the same place, so nobody has to pay for their health insurance.

Do Right, Be Right. :)

I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.
