re: New feature: best price
WHY NOT AMAZON? Amazon.com Inc have been critized for: - Employing anti union consultancy firm According to Unite the Union, Amazon continues to this day to see trade union representation as illegitimate. - Poor working conditions (ie. no sick leave allowed, even if doctor-prescribed; compulsory 10½hour overnight shift at the end of a five-day week, which means they have to work every day of the week; set quotas for the number of items to be picked or packed in an hour that even a manager described as “ridiculous” etc.) - Amazon squeeze publishers and writers through their monopoly - Environmental reporting practically nonexistent. - Criticised for poor carbon reporting (although you won't mind this but it is strongly related to pollution) - Criticised for slow progress on improving precious metal supply chain (which means more pollution, slavery etc.). - Sale of non FSC-approved paper products - Sale of beauty products tested on animals - Sale of leather products & goods. They sell leather (some of which comes from animals who have been skinned alive). - Sale of rape and sexual violence simulation games - Sale of uncertified diamonds (ie. more pollution and slavery) - Supply chain policy practically inexistent - Sale of 'tour guide for paedophiles' - Member of USCIB lobby group Hope BM will go back to its original path...one day, maybe. Thanks! Gio
