Amazon isn't hiring all those people to suck up to the government. They would happily replace them all with robots. They are constantly trying to automate more.

- peoplefromibiza 5y agoThat's exactly what I said. They are hiring all those people to have leverage in governments deals. But they could automate a lot more, hire much less people and make higher profits, at the cost of more scrutiny from the government: it recently happened in Italy where they have been fined for abuse of dominant position and immediately after they announced a program to hire a thousand more workers by year-end.
