I love amazon but im done. I will use it to find items and search elsewhere. They actually might have given some workers a reduction in salary long term.

Sounds like they are choosing to equalize rank and file pay but will limit those who start to climb the ladder into management positions and lower their compensation

No free lunch I guess

I know their profit margins are razor thin so they honestly can't afford the raises without taking away compensation from somewhere else

Essentially they ain't really raise anything but shift expense around

The profit margins are razor thin because they are trying to eliminate all competition not because they can't afford it :russ:

but thats how they've grown. No way Amazon gets to be as big as it has without providing cheaper products to consumers.

can't have it both ways.

Yeah, by that logic over a hundred countries should never listen to American news outlets because of American intervention in their countries. :manny:
and that would be their choice. also the american news outlets you're talking about aren't govt entities. people around the world know that the BBG's various radio properties are from the american govt and that's why it's not so effective. you would be surprised how many westerners who watch that trash on youtube don't know RT is from the russian govt. china needs to get their shyt together and get a CCT Today popping because we need their propaganda shaping our discourse as well.

Yeah American news outlets are just regulated by the FCC.

russia today has a singular purpose, there is no differentiation between the content and the source. anyway you're fine with russia's actions so :manny:

Of course RT has a bias. It’s always a pro Kremlin friendly bias.

But in that RT America segment, they brought facts and they had a distinguished professor on to talk about them.

Is part of the reason to throw shade on American corporatism? Of course!

But it’s refreshing when you have a segment like that and it’s not just RT. You’ll find it on Al Jazeera too.

Our cable outlets are so trash when it comes to talking about anything except the drama in DC...

and that would be their choice. also the american news outlets you're talking about aren't govt entities. people around the world know that the BBG's various radio properties are from the american govt and that's why it's not so effective. you would be surprised how many westerners who watch that trash on youtube don't know RT is from the russian govt. china needs to get their shyt together and get a CCT Today popping because we need their propaganda shaping our discourse as well.

China’s big state international news broadcaster is CGTN. They air from Beijing, Nairobi, and Washington DC mainly. They have interesting programs as well but always will tow the Chinese Communist Party friendly line.

They have been very aggressive on Trump in recent months cause of the trade war.
