The truth is that Bernie Sanders fought, and still fights for the workers more than any elected US president combined for decades. And his crusade against Amazon and Jeff Bezos' enormous greed resulted in the unprecedented decision of the company to raise minimum wage to $15 an hour.
Jesus the hyperbole. It hurts my face to read. And there's like three sentences from a bloomberg post, then the whole bottom reads like a manifesto with no actual info related to Bezos, Bernie or the how this change will affect the Amazon employees going forward..
edit: Also enormously greedy jeff and his $2.5M to help get a Washington state referendum in support of same-sex marriage passed, $15M for brain research at Princeton University, $10M to the Museum of History & Industry to establish a "Center for Innovation," donated to political campaigns over the years, mostly to Democratic candidates, oh and $2Billion to the network of schools and housing for the homeless he started. He's given 2% of his net worth (not salary!) away. That's pretty big.
It's one thing to say he was in charge, but was he really? most of these companies have hundreds if not thousands of people that work on salary schedules, hours, insurance rules, HR... To act like this was all big greedy Jeff is dangerous and disingenuous. They have board members and stockholders, and the way the stock options were rearranged, they probably had to get SEC approval too (SEC is my speculation). Either way, many many people were involved.
