Cooke 2,033 Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 All these massive S&P500 companies are reaping the benefits of online shopping and small business closures. Meanwhile with high unemployment numbers there zero incentive for Amazon and the like to pay their workers any more money. The unemployed have no choice. The rich keep getting richer and the middle class continues to shrink. Where is the tipping point? It can't be too far off. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
nitric 472 Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Finally you make a decent thread. And I agree, the rich are getting richer, the middle class and lower class are getting fucked. If this virus affected the rich the way it affected the rest of the country, we would have a vaccine by now. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Of course store owners might see increases, but you’re looking at billions lost in other ways...any entertainer, most of sports, event sales, etc. musicians make most of their money from touring.

Tears of the Cows 1,213 Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 There really is zero reason to work for Amazon though (at least some shitty Wearhouse job or something like that) I have no idea why people do it Link to post Share on other sites

Get out of your bubble. I know engineers that work Amazon delivery after their day job. It's easy $1k. Link to post Share on other sites

Mr. Impossible 411 Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Ironically I cancelled my Amazon subscription during COVID. They nixed day at and it would take over a week to receive items and they botched a couple of my orders too. During the same time stuff I ordered from B&H and Best Buy would come in one or two days for free. So it was a no-brainer. Link to post Share on other sites

I'm kicking myself about the Kodak stock as I was actually looking at it for a stupid reason and it was so low I wanted to grab a couple hundred bucks worth just because. Would have been a quick 6k because I would have sold it immediately lol Link to post Share on other sites
