— Thousands of Amazon workers receive food stamps. Now Sen. Bernie Sanders wants Amazon to pay up. – Abha Bhattarai
https://www.dailyherald.com/business/20180824/thousands-of-amazon-workers-receive-food-stamps-now-sen-bernie-sanders-wants-amazon-to-pay-up
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “While Mr. Bezos is the most egregious example, the Walton family of Walmart and many other billionaire-owned profitable corporations also enrich themselves off taxpayer assistance while paying their workers poverty-level wages,” Sanders said. Representatives for Walmart did not respond to requests for comment. Bezos, who founded Amazon in 1994, has seen his net worth steadily climb in recent months as the stock market hits record highs. He is currently worth $157 billion, up from $99 billion a year ago, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. The median Amazon worker, meanwhile, was paid $28,446 last year, according to company filings. (The federal poverty level for a family of four is currently $24,600.) Etches, of Amazon, said the company had created more than 130,000 new jobs “with highly competitive pay and full benefits” in the last year. She added that the average hourly wage for full-time workers in U.S. warehouses is more than $15 an hour, when stock and incentive bonuses are factored in. “We encourage anyone to compare our median pay and benefits to other retailers,” Etches said. The company did not say how many of its workers are part-time, but said that it hires thousands of temporary workers during peak holiday times. Amazon reported profit of $3.03 billion last year, as sales climbed 31 percent to $178 billion.)
