​@@KnownNiche1999 The problem is that there is no fair exchange under capitalism. Every single job you take is exploitative and alienating. You are forced to agree to these conditions because you don't own the means of production. If you don't agree, you will live on the street and literally starve or get to enjoy prison

​​@@Hawokkiif you are working a full 40 hours a week anywhere while a company substantially profits off your labor it should be enough to cover your essential living expenses. Why is that ridiculous? Because they aren't forced to work there? Maybe in a perfect world yes. But there are plenty of circumstances where a person may have no choice due to the consequences being too dire to pay should they leave. Their job prospects may not be as lucrative as others and when you apply to an entry level position there is usually 100+ other candidates applying for the same position. Even if you set all of that aside, Amazon has more than enough money to give hundreds of thousands of its employees a wage increase rather than spending over a billion on a shitty tv series.

@@bloop1980 If you are uneducated on how a business works, then what you say might make sense. However, that's not how it works. You don't simply dig into your profits as a multibillion dollar company and give it to your employees for no reason. You have to go through countless amounts of shareholders and the board in order to make that decision and you need to justify the loss of billions of dollars to give more money to people who are easily replaceable and have 0 skills or knowledge. If it was THAT BAD, people wouldn't be lining up to work for amazon, in which case Amazon may have a genuine reason to increase pay if people stopped working for them. "Living expenses" is an incredibly vague term. Realistically, all that is is food, shelter and clothes. It's not your phone or internet. It's not weekends out with your friends. In today's world, if you end up in a situation where you are FORCED due to your circumstances to work for amazon, you 100% brought that on yourself with your bad choices and now you face the consequences. The consequences of increasing pay of Amazon workers will be faced by the people, not the company. Firstly, working for Amazon will become more lucrative and therefore more competitive. People who are unable to get a different job due to not being educated enough or having any skills, may be forced out of their job by more skilled and educated people who otherwise wouldn't work for Amazon by getting better pay elsewhere. Secondly, the price of goods and services through Amazon will be increased due to the increased cost of logistics. You will pay for that, not the company. This will open the door for competitors who may undercut Amazon and steal all the customers, tanking their profits and causing layoffs. This is not to say that Amazon isn't providing an increase in wage every year. They are catching up with inflation rates, but overall the value of money is going down and the cost of living is going up and there's nothing Amazon can do to stop this. This issue is caused by the government. Two things can happen to curb this. Either you lower your living standards, or Amazon increases your pay. How about instead of expecting someone to fix your problems for you, you start taking care of your own problems. Welcome to the real world.

Remember, if you can't unionize, then you are replaceable. It is the unfortunate reality of being able to freely choose your job and employers being able to freely choose employees. Businesses don't exist to pay your bills. They exist to make money for the people who invested in the company. Remember what unions did to Detroit. They demanded more than their labor was worth, and the jobs went somewhere else. That's not anti union propaganda. Just reality. But the bright side of that means that if you can become irreplaceable, then they can't stop you.

I worked at Wal-Mart and they had a similar kind of video. I was just looking around like, is anybody buying this crap? One of their actual arguments was that if you're unionized, you have to pay union fees. Yes, we have to pay union fees out of our hourly pay which has doubled because we're in a union. It's unbelievable the lies they tell.
