In 2018, Amazon raised its starting wage for all U.S. employees to at least $15 an hour. We’ve seen the positive impact this has had on our employees, their families, and their communities. Since then, we’ve been lobbying Congress to increase the federal minimum wage—which has been stuck at $7.25…
Your title implies that because amazon argues for a 15 dollar minimum wage, just like us leftists do (actually many of us argue for higher now but for the sake of your post, lets stick with 15), that means its a bad thing. I’m genuinely struggling to understand why you thought to post an about article directly from Amazon with your own bs title. Just because a big corporation advocates for the same thing doesn’t mean those things shouldn’t be advocated for. Amazon is also lobbying for the legalization of weed, does that mean that legalization isn’t a good thing? It’s an incredibly flawed argument and if that’s not what you’re saying I’d love to know what you’re actually trying to communicate with this post.
