Jeff Bezos strategically says a bunch of bad things and strategically sneaks in unions at the end. he obv knows the "root cause" is the lack of unions. all those things he said before his company takes full advantage of. wagies really watched this thinking he's on there side and he manipulated them in real time. they're barely conscious

"Sick puppies, nuclear weapons umm the holocaust ummm ummm dead puppies.... and unions. yea those unions. all those bad things man" in his mind he was like "heh stupid wagies"
>>
I remember that Whole Foods email leak after Amazon bought them.

They did an internal study and found that the more diversity among store employees, the lower the risk of the employees unionizing. It's wild how far they're willing to go to make sure wagies don't try to get uppity and demand better working conditions
>>
>>62329655
if he cared about fixing this he would fund a grassroots political movement to outlaw PACs, create tax reform, etc.

it's a real mystery why he doesn't do this.
>>
>>62329669
lol then they turn around and say diversity is our strength. always say the bad thing is good and the good thing is bad. wagies are barely conscious
>>
>>62329655
how does a wagie not see this chart and instantly gain consciousness
>>
>>62329669
wow thats evil

wtf do these retards even need that much money for like bezos has 200bn he can buy literally everything. Even the most expensive object he can buy more than 100 of (some 500MM mega yacht)

it's a mental illness. the CFO at my job suffered a cancer diagnosis while at his previous CFO position. rather than count his blessings and retire with tens of millions of dollars, he went back to work as a CFO. in a sane world, these people would have their brains dissected.

Unions are actually terrible 90% of the time

Take that Starbucks union. Do you think they would picket for a month then get 35$/hr + vacations? No those employees generate like 12$/hr each so the store just close then they are all unemployed

The only industries where it makes sense have already unionized like 200 years ago
>>
>>62329864
that's because you gotta focus on the bottom 90%. once people make more, they're able to spend more
>>
>>62329864
yeah good point thats why i refuse raises and promotions because the executives would make less money
>>
>>62329864
Also, the average Starbucks store makes roughly $25,000 to $30,000 per week. This means each individual employee generates hundreds of dollars in hourly revenue for the company leaving a massive profit margin.

also, the closures are retaliation for unionizing. not because it killed the business. that is a made-up legal cover
>>
>>62329864

ALSO federal judges have explicitly found that Starbucks illegally shut down certain profitable stores and fired workers specifically to punish them for unionizing, using "profitability" or "safety" as a fake legal cover-up

It blows my mind that I share a vote with someone this confidently slow.

>it's a real mystery why he doesn't do this.
Because you eventually realize that 99% of charity and handouts are a complete waste of time and money. The bottom 25% are completely useless and will never be able to contribute anything to society besides crime. The bottom 50% will always prioritize hedonism over planning for the future and the only contribution they can make to society is being warm bodies to do the jobs AI can't
>>
>>62330287
he can legit create his own mega charity group and solve world hunger in USA at least

easily and his assets will just appreciate more every year
>>
>>62330287
without the bottom 50% clicking ads ON DEY FOAMS, amazon would be worth nothing.

Non union fags are retarded for not voting to unionize.
It's not all pros, but the positive far outweighs the negative.

Thats not how that works, typical union untermensch iq

Average store hours is 6am to 9pm(15). 7 days a week is 105hrs. 30,000k รท 105 is 285 per hour. 10 average employees for 28.5/hr not counting any overhead or material

Lieing or stupid, same as all unionoids
>>
>>62331706
To expound, labor costs are about 30% of the total expenses, 28.5/3=9.5$ and hour

you didn't provide a relevant argument. you recited an irrelevant fact like someone who performs manual labor for a living, and is incapable of engaging in discussion beyond the usual memetics, pantomiming, etc. (im not particularly invested in this argument considering I'm salary exempt and in management.)

This all Teamster propaganda bullshit. You're all grifting kikes.

The correlation ignores that the biggest drop in top income share happened during WWII due to wartime wage controls and 94% marginal tax rates, not union power and when inequality started rising in the late 70s, unions were still near their peak, meaning the timelines don't even line up the way the graph needs them to.

and because i can predict the inner workings of your low IQ manual labor brain, the average union due is between 1% and 3% of gross wages.
>>
>here's simply a link as counter-argument because i'm too lazy and stupid to come up with something

Kek typical union titty sucker

Your own link admits that the wage gap reflects occupation, industry, age, and geography and not necessarily union bargaining power so they're not even making the causal claim people read into this. The public sector numbers are especially inflated because government jobs already carry PAY SCALES and civil service protections that exist with or without a union card and with private sector membership collapsed to 5.9%, companies like Amazon were still forced to raise wages just to compete for workers, which suggests the market can do what unions take credit for.
>>
>>62331993
Ironic that you call others low IQ. When you yourself are too stupid to argue. Do you need your rep to come to this thread to do that for you too?
>>
>>62331999
see this post >>62331801. i'm not a manual laborer. i'm salary exempt, in management, and probably make a lot more than you.

your response doesn't really say much. nonsensical rambling with an supported conclusion. per the data i linked, union members have materially higher wages than non union members.
>>
>>62329655
from the few videos i have seen of this guy I'm pretty sure he doesn't even see others as human beings. especially if your networth is below 5 million
there is a video of him talking to a worker in his company and you can see how annoyed bezos is that he dared to speak to him
>>
>>62332008
>your response doesn't really say much
And your anectodal rantings do?

>per the data i linked, union members have materially higher wages than non union members.

And I already explained that even your own link to that article admits the wage gap is driven by who union members are their industries, occupations, and regions not what unions actually did for them.
>>
>>62332017
too lazy to put your claim to the test?

now, i command you to compare fringe benefits like paid time off.

Here anon I'll humor you

>union "wage premium"
kek just look at the actual sectors. tech? nonunion wins by $283. finance? $288. fed govt with their own stronghold and nonunion wins by $233. the whole thing is carried by some boomer construction workers and DMV employees and they're acting like it proves something
>>
>>62332098
which is why i commanded you to do additional research.
>>62332109
>tech
>finance
i want you to push your inferior manual labor brain to its absolute limit. would you expect either of these fields to have significant union membership? let's take it a step further: if we assume the answer is "no", what would you expect union vs non-union wages to look like, and how would you explain this phenomenon?

https://www.bls.gov/news.release/union2.t03.htm
>>
>>62332154
>i command you to do research for my own argument against you

You union wagies are absolutely fucking hilarious no wonder you need a kike to steal from your paycheck while pretending to be in your favor

Also you forgot to actually name the fields you mouth breathing retard. I'll spot you the missing premise though that even in sectors with near-zero union density, a localized union still typically produces a 10-20% wage premium over non-union counterparts. The dynamic just looks different than in manufacturing or public sector

>>62329864
that's retarded, corrupt amerimutt unions, that only care about money.
real unions know their shit about markets and profits, and ask for income based on that.
>>
>>62332309
So I'd be fine with a real union but being in the US that's not an option so fuck 'em.
