Mr. Bezos,
The world knows that Amazon can afford to pay its workers, its
environmental cost and its taxes. And yet – time and again – you have
dodged and dismissed your debts to workers, societies, and the planet.
Your great wealth is based on the skills of your workers and the care
they receive from their friends, family and communities. These are
the very people who risked their health and that of their loved ones to
supply goods to consumers and make you enormous profits. But while
your personal wealth has risen by around US $13 million per hour in
2020, these workers enter dangerous working conditions, enjoy little
or no increase in their pay, and face retaliation for their efforts to
defend themselves and organize their colleagues.
Yours sincerely...
