I had many summer warehouse jobs doing picking and shipping/receiving. I busted my ass off with lots of manual labor and strict timetracking. But my co-workers were not exactly the brightest of the bunch: alcoholics, ex-cons, high school drop outs, poor English, etc. There's an entire bottom rung of society that most people ignore. Higher wages are for attracting and retaining better workers. If $15/hour ever becomes minimum federal wage, I bet Amazon would up their own minimum wage as well.
