The thing that makes Amazon's case stand out is how systematic it is (and the scale at which that system plays out). This is a global company with deep pockets, and it very deliberately meters out exactly how much it can push people to maintain maximum profits. Even when that means people get injured or burned-out; others will take their place. The dire state of the low-wage job market, that causes people to take these jobs because it's the best they can get, is no excuse for treating people as subhuman.
