The successful entrepreneur makes his money by capital gains in the share or venture capital markets and not by extracting it from his employees. Employees compete with each other for salaries. Employer competes with other employers for bot

Poor logic. Without state support or food stamps Walmart or Amazon would pay the lower wage employees even less - because the food stamps establish a minimum bar which the employees can expect. Without that support, the market for low wage

The right way to look at it is that workers already on state support are people who already have a bare minimum wage lower than which they won't get out of bed for. i.e Amazon would have had to pay LESS if the state support didn&#x27

Can someone explain why a librarian needs to study library science,if the primary job of libraries today now is to act as a community center and a place for people in trouble to get help. Maybe they should hire people who are social workers

The choking nullahs aren't merely full of plastic. It's debris from the massive construction, both private and govt. Has anyone seen road design in Mumbai? The "expressway" signal junctions are made of paver blocks. Gut

The police cannot do any mass surveillance with AWS Recognition. For that they need access to huge amount of video feeds.IF they already have access to such video and use primitive techniques to sift through them for identifying criminals,

Er, explain how the law enforcement is violating any terms and conditions. Domain fronting is illegal. Mass surveillance is what the NSA does for a living. If it is offensive to prime members, they have found the wrong tree to bark up

Don't they understand their own platform? AWS is self service. Anyone with a credit card can set up an account and consume Rekognition or any other service. It's not as if it has to be sold to the police by a sales person under s

Nonsense.NIMBYs aren't the new young renters. They are OLD Seattleites.

Illogical. People who can't afford 2 bed rentals don't move to the nearby street if rents are unaffordable. They move to another town where they can afford the rents. Correlation isn't causation

1. Homelessness wasn't caused by Amazon. 2.The govt has a restrictive zoning policy not caused by Amazon but is the definitive cause of the housing shortage. 3.You give an easy pass to those whose exclusive job is to solve these probl

The US government spends 9 billion per DAY. Perhaps you could ask your elected representative if they could divert 0.1 percent of it towards this problem instead of on spending on bombing brown people in far away lands -you realize the US s

Why are there thousands of homeless now? Is it a new phenomenon or a slow brewing thing. How can you conclude that recent massive hiring in Amazon has caused homelessness?

Why is there no discussion on rezoning single home areas to allow multistorey buildings? Can someone explain how the influx of tech workers has forced out existing Seattle citizens onto the roads? Are we sure that they are not out of towner

Start from first principles, jobs are costs. We wanna reduce costs. Also, exports are costs, imports are the benefits. It is counterintuitive to most people, however

How are automaton owning plutocrats supposed to get rich if they don't sell their robot made wares to the plebs? It's silly to think that automation makes the poor poorer. It makes them richer. Only logical conclusion is that stu

Hypotheticals don't work in law. You don't punish someone who hasn't commited a crime.thats common law. Now if it were Europe style civil law, it would be different. Also if Google had died in its infancy, there's nothin

This is not anti competitive behaviour. In fact, this IS competition. Competition means all sorts of actions that lead to me having more customers than you. The only problem is when the entrenched business use govt/lobbying/abusiv

The US govt spends 3 trillion a year. Bezos 100 billion lifetime wealth is not even a rounding error. The govt could try being a tiny 0.1 percent efficient every year and satisfy the desires of every liberal bleeding heart

Not capitalism. Human progress and dynamism. We could all live pre industrial life, be born and die at 30, be cold and sick most of the time and die mostly illiterate. Nasty, short and brutish i.e that ship has long sailed now
