You don't believe that whole "company housing", "Pinkertons assassinating union leaders", and "working Chinese immigrants to death" stuff do you? Why, if that was true, who would even work for us?

      Just a heads up, courts of law usually don't throw their hands up and say "damn, you owned us" because the defendant "didn't technically say the thing" or "was only asking questions"

    Holy shit the tweet being responded to that prompted the response from Amazon is possibly worse. In reference to Bernie traveling to go support union organizers: “I often say we are the Bernie Sanders of employers, but that’s not quite right because we actually deliver a progressive workplace,”

    “So if you want to hear about $15 an hour and health care, Senator Sanders will be speaking downtown,” Clark added in a reply, before another swipe at the senator. “But if you would like to make at least $15 an hour and have good health care, Amazon is hiring.”

      "Economic pressure sometimes forces people to work at whatever jobs that can get, regardless of quality, and they have to just deal with it in order to avoid starvation or becoming destitute? What do you mean, WE don't force people to work here!"
