- intermittent strikes

You: Struggling like everyone else because of rampant inequality and worker exploitation

Your Bank: Uh, better wake and grind, don't look over here.

"Why can’t #Amazon convert #Prime shoppers into #WholeFoods shoppers?"

Answer: Because Amazon is loathsome, and Whole Foods customers know it and feel it. 🙄

On this #TaxDay, let's remember that Trump’s tax policies will raise taxes on millions of working people, while giving $4 billion in tax rebates to Fortune 500 companies and continuing to allow profitable companies like Amazon and Chevron to pay zero in federal income taxes.

We're at the Central Area Senior Center, where over a 150 Central District seniors are justly upset that Mayor Durkan (who got $350,000 for her campaign from Amazon) has chosen to ignore a *unanimous* community demand that this property be held in public hands in perpetuity.

@realDonaldTrump Mr. President, even the Italians Have Launched a Probe into Amazon's BAD Practices

Isn't it time for the FTC to Launch an Investigation into Serial Offender Amazon?

A massive program of social housing (quality, publicly-funded, permanently-affordable homes) in Seattle, by taxing Amazon and other big biz and the rich = A massive City public-works program = Tens of thousands of public-sector, unionized, family-wage construction and allied jobs

[Fight for a Union @FightForAUnion]

Amazon made its CEO the wealthiest person in the world. So why can’t the company care for those injured while working there?

Large corporations like Amazon, Netflix and General Motors could end up paying a combined $0 in federal taxes this year thanks to the Republican tax bill. https://t.co/J8HnhNKBpo

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

Do you want to know what's crazy? Last year, Amazon and Netflix, to name a couple companies, paid no federal income taxes after making billions in profits.

It's been almost six months since Amazon raised its minimum wage to $15. Why hasn't @Walmart, owned by the richest family in America, also started paying all their employees a living wage of $15 an hour?

[Jacobin @jacobin]

Mega-companies like Amazon and Walmart are already using large-scale central planning. We can wield that tool for good. Socialists need to renew our embrace of democratic planning and fight for a real alternative to capitalism. https://t.co/V2nBkMgail
