Amazon raises minimum wage to $15 for all US employees

quote [ Amazon and CEO Jeff Bezos have been facing criticism for its pay disparity.
The new minimum wage will benefit more than 250,000 Amazon employees — including part-time and temporary employees — and 100,000 seasonal employees. ]

And that criticism came from one guy in particular...Thanks Bernie.

The Temp raise was a no brainer as temporary worker are going to be harder to get due to full employment.

What Mr. Bezos has done today is not only enormously important for Amazon’s hundreds of thousands of employees, it could well be a shot heard around the world. I urge corporate leaders around the country to follow Mr. Bezos' lead.

I’m pleased my comment provided a modicum of amusement. There aren’t many of us left here, and we might as well enjoy ourselves. It’s a shame the organization didn’t have benefit of your crack legal advice before it shelled out 3.5 million bucks for slander. But then again, the “law” part of “law Center” was always a fraud. Those millions of dollars, donated by hapless rubes such as yourself, were no doubt earmarked to grossly overcompensate SPLC insiders, and vilify political opponents – the only two things the SPLC were any good at.

But in the end your views, like my views, don’t matter, because the organization is toast. It is finally and justly receiving its comeuppance. I predicted all of this on this forum years ago, and I was right. I will continue to update this community as the SPLC continues it long overdue decent into irrelevancy and disrepute.
