As much as Amazon sucks, I’m under the impression that the union cannot win a vote. The employees voted against unionizing not because of illegal intimidation, but 1) they knew Amazon would cut jobs and move elsewhere if they succeeded, 2) the condition and pay in Amazon warehouses, though sub-par, is much better then any other job in their area, and 3) these are places with general anti-union sentiment. If we want to improve conditions for these people, we need to give them better opportunities and education. Right now Amazon is the hand that feeds them, and even if they were to unionize they’d just be the more-regulated hand that feeds them.
