[QUOTE="Frank Underwood, post: 114603, member: 35"] Back in 2011, Amazon paid a company to station ambulances and paramedics outside their warehouse because many of their workers were experiencing heat exhaustion. Apparently, they felt that was a more appropriate gesture than air conditioning the warehouses. It got so bad that OSHA was contacted. According to their investigation, conditions at the warehouse had “the potential to adversely impact” employee safety and health. So the richest man in the world makes his employees work in deplorable conditions for shitty wages. But since the hypocritically tax-evading Trump is targeting Amazon because of how he's treated by the Bezos- owned Washington Post, Democrats are coming out in the company's defense. Trump and Bezos are both loathsome, self-serving scum, but we live in an era where Trump's enemies are elevated to hero status. We've seen this happen with people like George Bush and Robert Mueller, both of whom are war criminals who lied us into the Iraq War. Unfortunately, moderate Dems have lost the plot in their opposition to Trump. I oppose all of them, yet the moderates claim I don't really oppose Trump like I say I do. I find that odd since I criticize neoliberal failures for [I]giving[/I] us Trump in the first place! [/QUOTE]
