Leading from behind, just like his buddy Obama. He acts as if Amazon was first to raise the min wage.

Who working at Amazon made less than 15 an hour before this? The janitors and...?

They're pressuring competitors to do the same thing and said they'd be taking political action to get legislation passed. They made it to the top on the backs of slave wages, now they want to kick the rungs out from beneath them. Close the door behind them to make it harder for startups to compete.

Well fuck, now my prime membership is going to be $159 bucks instead of $119
"Capitalism"

The 10 million package grabbers for order fulfillment?

>Kav accusers getting BTFO
>California slowing in growth and about to collapse under its steep minimum wages and venture capitalism running far away
>Bernie too berned out to get anything done in his home state, so he has to call a cucking on the other side of the country that had nothing to do with him some sort of victory
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

More likely that the improving economy applied pressure to Amazon to raise their wages as it was becoming quite well known that Amazon was shit to work for.
Bezos being a raging liberal faggot decides that rather than allow Trump to take credit he can give Bernie credit and act like he's "seen the light". Effectively looking good and denying Trump more political capital.
This is my honest guess, because Amazon was going to eventually be forced to raise their wages as currently we are seeing a labor shortage, and this will inevitably force wages to rise.

everyone handling packages which is about 90% of amazon employees

>Vermont
Pop 600K
95% white, 2% Hispanic and Asian, 1% black
He basically has the easiest job in the country, as far as "representing his state"
they don't want or need shit, and they take care of themselves, if the rest of the US could be as based as Vermont/New Hampshire, things would be so much a better

Certainly, economic pressure was a factor. But I doubt it would've happened as quickly and drastically as it did if the left-wing media and politicians hadn't hit Amazon as hard and relentlessly as we've seen.

Amazon's PR and reputation only went down the drain thanks to the work of Sanders and other leftists.

Great, now Ill be seeing more chrysler 300’s, hoonigan ricers, and yeezys everywhere.

Tractor supply pays like 18 an hr get fuckin good amazon

Bezos sees unionization coming and will do anything to avoid it

we got hose at more and more places in chicago and no one uses them but green and pink haired hipsters. in any non wealthy area no one uses them. spics and nigs cant understand how to operate them.

This. It's a business tactic. They can weather the storm or paying out higher wages during time it takes for competition to fail.

It's a ploy.

>Raise Amazon minimum wage to 15 an hour
>Do so by removing performance based bonuses thus saving them money overall
>Lobby Congress to have the federal minimum wage raised to 15 an hour
>Competition is put out of business by new law

Never trust Amazon.

Great I love paying more for shipping thanks Bernie! And now that the countdown has begun we'll start seeing drone deliveries in the near future but, jokes on us, the prices will stay the same! Perfect.

>tfw just left Amazon a few months ago

The same cretins who cry about WalMart undercutting "little guys" prices will be cheering about Amazon's lobbying for a huge federal minimum wage increase.

Implying any other company can afford to pay unskilled labor that much (outside of meme cities). Marxists are always useful idiots for Jew billionaires helping raise insurmountable barriers of entry to any potential competition.

Free state project should have included forcing all the cucks out of the state, by force

Exactly this.

My two friends lost their delivery jobs because Amazon dropped the contract with their employment company because of cost

He knows what he's doing. And he doesn't need Bernie's help.

This was coming long before bernie showed up with his pinko sweatshop bullshit. Amazon had been paying only hour to their prime now & logistic center employees for years, even made them partime & hired disables to get tax breaks. I'm not kidding about hiring disabled only either prime now & other division like fresh got rid of bonuses, differentials & yearly raises. Now it looks like they're just applying that scheme to fulfillment centers now.
I work full time in a west coast FC, or fulfillment center. Without the bonuses no one here made less than 13.5 dollars an hour. In fact most new people made 15 an hour after attendance bonus & productivity unless they skipped work a few times a month. Bonuses attendance and up to 19-22 compensation if they stuck around long enough for the stock to vest. not including vacation & paid time off. Yeah and if they took overtime the 4% attendance bonus stacked ontop of the 1.5x pay, about 25 an hour for ten hours 4 times a month means an extra 1k pre tax. Two weeks of vacation a year & 20 hours of paid time off.
Now thanks to our esteemed senator from wherever the restricted stock units will be discontinued, no more monthly bonus of attendance & productivity. Also every low level employee has practically equal pay now. Slackers on their first week get the same as the rate monsters who've been here for years.
Honestly now all the fucking asshats that take voluntary time off to game welfare and social progs will get fucked & might leave now so kinda glad about that, but everyone in high cost of living areas else got fucked because bernies gave amazon the perfect stage let amazon cut wages & look like good guys for doing it.

MANAGER: WHAT ARE WE GONNA CLAP IT OUT TO?
PA: THANKS BERNIE
MANAGER: ALRIGHT "THANKS BERNIE" ON THREE: ONE TOW THREE
WAGIES: THANKS BERNIE

Tucker Carlson and people around here have been very critical of Amazon and Bezos for some time. They didn't do this just because of Bernie.

Jeff Bezos is based.

>private company makes voluntary PR move

get fucked

with all honesty, I dont think this is the plan because I dont think bezos even needs to raise prices. He fucking controls the prices. If he wants cereal to cost 4 dollars, it costs 4 dollars. Raising it up to 5 dollars hardly does shit for him if hes basically the only one getting business.

Some very time you buy something from Amazon you will pay a little extra that the employee will pocket 1% of

This applies to delivery stations too, right?

Tfw you cuck everyone on the Forbes list and double Bill Gates net worth while having your employees work in cages and need gibs to survive. Then you give everyone a dollar or 2 raise and become a hero.

Pretty sure this just pressures them further to hire minorities, and earn back part of the wages via "affirmative action" tax credits

worth 170 billion cant pay $15 an hour

>hire minorities
yeah, right. nigger don't work.
you think amazon lets people who are lazy stay on their team?

amazon can pull off the $15 minimum wage, but smaller businesses in general cannot. faggot
