Before the behemoth of trickle down economics began in the ‘80s it was understood there were more stakeholders than just stockholders. Amazon workers would be seen as important as Amazon investors. An unjust shift of power & money into the stockholder class has created a disaster

Sorry, that is not true at all. Been in electronics for years and valuing employees is part of the culture. There has never been a need for unions. What you are talking about is distinctly an Amazon thing, not a trickle down economy thing. Bezos is just a bad guy!

Just in case anyone thinks this kind of stuff is new - everyone should watch this documentary that shows what the United States give does to people who organize against the oligarchs - they have been doing the same thing for more than a hundred years

I worked for a company in the 90s that tried TQM for a while. I loved the concept of „stakeholders,“ and the idea that a company could use better metrics than the bottom line. But it was ultimately disappointing, because they didn‘t really mean it.

Isn’t the owner a big time Democrat donor? He should practice what he preaches.

Amazon has no shortage of people who want to work there and who enjoy working there. Amazon isn't the enemy.

"Disaster" describes something unplanned or unforeseen. An accident. The "shift of power & money into the stockholder class" was no accident.

Employees should be treated as the most important shareholders.

Still upset that @amazon closed the woman owned book store worker owned cooperative of the same name in Minneapolis after reaching a settlement with them for naming rights.
