Amazon employees are now going to make less per year.
Nonsense, obvious nonsense. Really irritating when people argue extreme ridiculous positions to defend their nonsense ideas. A person who is making $15 an hour is obviously making more than someone who is making $10 an hour.
And the "this will bring on automation and eliminate jobs" argument is equally stupid. Amazon is going to automate as many jobs as they can as quickly as they can either way, and then what happens? The people who are now making $20 an hour because they are lower management or whatever become the new bottom of the rung and that will be the new group that you stupidly believe only "deserve" $7.25 an hour, meanwhile they will move onto welfare in companies who pay such low wages.
Or maybe you believe a guy who made $50B last years wasn't going to automate as fast as he could but now that wages for a few thousand people have went up $3 an hour per person he for sure is.

Maybe you should read the terms of the wage increase.
