I've read through the comments and unions seem to pop up? I didn't read the entire story. I didn't read the story--because I didn't want to sign up to read the original. I did go to other sites and got the gist of the accusations. I know a lot of you seem to despise unions, but wouldn't a strong union stop some of the allegations? I feel it might stop that weaselly anonymous snitch gizmo? And it might stop employees from being picked upon when sick? I don't have anything against Jeff Bezos, other than I think he has too much money. A good Union, besides protecting employees, would distribute that money he's basically playing with? (I said playing with! That's just my opinion.). What has Amazon done for me? I got a few gadgets, and one rare book at a good price. What has Amazon done to irritate me? I don't have retail stores, I can browse through anymore. (That isn't Amazon's fault, but they added to the problem? Yes--I think it's a problem. I used to like going to book stores, and seeing people out. I can't now. They're closed.) I now have the sound of UPS truck engines imprinted in my brain forever. I guess you could say if Amazon didn't find a way to distribute a package to your doorstep, someone would have eventually? This way of shopping doesn't seem good for the environment? I would love to see commercial trucks banned from residential streets on weekends, or at least put a limit on them? So, yes I'm all for unions. They helped created the middle class. The union my father belonged to took money from the wealthy and gave my dad a shot at buying a house in a wealthy area, and offered him the opportunity to retire at a relatively young age. And for myself, I've never made any real money from non-union jobs--never. Actually--I don't recall one job I liked that wasen't non-union? Unions do need members though! They also need political involvement--like strong trade agreements, and politicians who don't feel unions are evil. I still can't figure out why we let corrupt China get away with their underhanded business practices? I'm not picking on China--we have already gone to the next corrupt countries looking for the best/cheapest way to make usually a small number of people very wealthy? And who cares about the environment over there; we can't see what's going on? let's just close our eyes and get our cheap gadgets, and I love getting my food from these conscientious countries? The FDA protects me? (I got off base in this paragraph--sorry. Just venting.) I have found that a person/corporation will do almost anything to make more money. The people I live amongst didn't become wealthy because they offered a fair shake on their business deals. They became rich be because they were ruthless, and no one got in their way. They stopped believing in anything in "The Book" years ago. (Yea, I said it. I still think the majority of those passages are important for society as a whole.) They are just interested in amassing a fortune. Maybe it's time to give Bezos a little Union lesson? I don't want to argue with anyone about unions--too tired.
