        This is why his philanthropy is meaningless to me. If Bezos actually wanted to give back and improve people's lives, he would start with his own employees.

        Yes, and every @amazon customer should think twice before buying. It's not "a good deal" when company owner makes millions and staff can't survive on a full time job

        Hey @JeffBezos Ever consider profit sharing? Or a living wage. I mean C’mon you made some ridiculous amount of money last year alone... To much is given, much is required...Income inequality is everyone’s responsibility. FFS.

        I am not defending this, bit if next to the Amazon Warehouse is XYZ Warehouse and they also need govt assistance why is this an Amazon issue? It is a national issue where minimum wage should be $15 per hour and indexed.
