976. Mode Tax-The-Rich : ON


Amazon employees in 20 countries will strike or protest on Black Friday for better working conditions as part of global 'Make Amazon Pay' campaign


 Article HERE

I hate the fact that this company (or any such market-places) made people believe that they will get the product they supposedly want - and rarely need - through a better service and for lesser a price. 

So many products listed on Amazon can be bought directly from the actual vendors if one takes the trouble to look up their - almost always - existing website, most often for a price that is not more expensive. The difference being that the vendor gets to keep the Amazon's fee for himself.

But just like Mistress Maddie pointed in the comments: they have made people lazy.

Well, that should make things interesting. The world is already complaining of shortages and hampered shipping. The US postal service has been crippled, thanks to the orange ogre and his evil minion. Holiday shoppers are in a whirl of anxiety, thanks to the media hyping it all. Why NOT choose now to make things worse?

GOOD! I despise that company! I will pay more for something then order it from them. They don't treat their workers right, and they are putting out of business or buying out small business to run out competition. Plus they have made people simply lazy.

I sure can't blame them.

Another comment of mine going lengthy, so I'll just update the post itself with it :-)

I wish them all the luck in the world!

(Why does that image look like it has a penis head peaking out?)

BatRedneck said...

LoL Rick!
A penis or a tongue?
Anyway they both most often get along...

Ah! I bet it's supposed to be a tongue. (Does that mean I have a dirty mind?)
