Amazon employees at a New York City
warehouse are demanding better pay and
protection after several employees
they're tested positive for the corona
virus we do not believe unions are in
the best interest of our customers our
shareholders are most importantly our
associates Bezos has also come under
scrutiny for paying very little to no
taxes and pitting States in the u.s.
against each other
to get huge subsidies to set up Amazon
facilities warehouse workers and
delivery drivers at the Staten Island
facility will walk off the job today
they say they won't go back to work
until the building is cleaned and
sanitized with no breaks they're having
to pee in water bottles like they always
say rising tide lifts all boats it's
Amazon and Walmart and it's no accident
Stephanie that today today those stocks
hit an all-time high - all of our
Hamazon retail heroes on the floor in
the air and behind the wheel we want to
thank you Amazon workers have been
forced to work in a hundred degree heat
with ambulances waiting outside taking
away the ones that fell the Amazon small
logo is a quick sketch of a circumcised
dick which paid almost no taxes last
year is offering only unpaid time off
for workers who are sick and just two
weeks paid leave for workers who test
positive for the virus meanwhile it
demands its employees put in mandatory
overtime they've now made their sick
leave policy more lenient for their
eight ropes that only came after they
got a letter from 14 state attorneys
general say their initial policy was
inadequate to protect the public health
according to Amazon he was let go for
violating social distancing guidelines
but leaks notes in an internal meeting
showed the company's leadership
discussing plans to make smalls the face
of the entire union organizing movement

which holy [ __ ] dude those are not
essential items you will learn about the
warning signs most commonly associated
with early union organizer the most

organization working closely with
instacart employee says what's on the
table bill don't simply won't cut it
so this strike is very much still on
something you can do is don't cross that
picket line stand in solidarity with
these workers today be watching
real-time as capitalism crumbles
shamelessly neglecting the needs of the
people in power all across the world
only pretend to care about our lives
until they quit making money I think we
all have to put this into perspective
while the loss of any human life is
tragic the coronavirus has had a much
more serious impact on business activity
than a human life that's for right now
across all countries people fight for
their lives in the face of a pandemic
being mishandled by our so-called
leaders we cannot trust the capitalist
system to hold lives over profit we
cannot trust a world leaders don't care
about the 99% / the 1% who line their
pockets we cannot trust the billionaires
and capitalists to trickle down anything
more than what is needed to maintain the
status quo we can trust each other we
can trust each other we can trust each
other we can trust the shared
perspectives of our neighbors we can
trust in the collective voices of the
people to bring about change
do not act alone workers banding
together in all industries saying enough
is enough enough it's enough shouting
you will hear our voices
you will hear our voices and meet
demands because it is our labor it is
our labor that truly commands the
integrity of human society emotions were
high as dozens of sanitation workers for
the city of Pittsburgh refused to go to
work on Wednesday we want better
equipment protective gear we have known
as we want hazard pay you will finally
see and acknowledge those who have
suffered the most are given the least we
join in this movement together during a
time when we are forced to stay
physically apart to breathe life back
into the faith of society and trust in
each other
trust in each other when we all finally
wake up to this truth we will smash the
foundations that hold the oligarchy in
power which is why our call to action is
allowed
don't act alone do not don't
