Amazon employees in 20 countries are reportedly preparing to strike on Black Friday as part of a campaign titled “Make Amazon Pay.”
Business Insider reports that Amazon employees in 20 different countries are planning a mass strike on Black Friday, one of the busiest shopping days of the year, as part of the “Make Amazon Pay” campaign. The campaign includes a coalition of 70 organizations including Greenpeace, Oxfam, and Amazon Workers International.

The workers are demanding accountability from top executives who they believe are placing profits ahead of worker wellbeing. Individual workers “from oil refineries, to factories, to warehouses, to data centers, to corporate offices” are expected to take part in the walkout on November 26.
Make Amazon Pay wrote in a list of demands on its website: “The pandemic has exposed how Amazon places profits ahead of workers, society, and our planet. Amazon takes too much and gives back too little. It is time to Make Amazon Pay.”
The protests come as Amazon employees continue to complain of long hours, low pay, and strict performance review systems. Make Amazon Pay is demanding increased salaries, improved job security, and the suspension of the “harsh productivity and surveillance regime Amazon has used to squeeze workers.”
The group is also calling for a “pay back to society” which will include enhanced environmental sustainability efforts, increased transparency over the use of user data and privacy measures, and the immediate end of partnerships between Amazon and police forces and immigration authorities which are “institutionally racist.”
“Amazon is not alone in these bad practices but it sits at the heart of a failed system that drives the inequality, climate breakdown, and democratic decay that scar our age,” Make Amazon Pay wrote in its demands.
A company spokesperson told Business Insider that the company is “inventing and investing significantly” in several of the categories that the campaign is calling for action in, including climate efforts. The spokesperson said:
These groups represent a variety of interests, and while we are not perfect in any area, if you objectively look at what Amazon is doing in each one of these areas you’ll see that we do take our role and our impact very seriously.
Make Amazon Pay was formed in 2020 and has since helped to organize a number of strikes and protests against company policies. The campaign states on its website: “During the COVID-19 pandemic, Amazon became a trillion dollar corporation, with Bezos becoming the first person in history to amass $200 billion in personal wealth. Meanwhile, Amazon warehouse workers risked their lives as essential workers, and only briefly received an increase in pay.”
A video on the Make Amazon Pay website further states: “Amazon’s wealth has increased so much during the pandemic that its owners could pay all 1.3 million of its employees a $690,000 COVID bonus and still be as rich as they were in 2020.”

China's Communist Leader Making More Sense on Wealth Redistribution Than Biden
Putin has wrecked Russia's already shaky economy, Biden is wrecking America's already broken economy seemingly to stop him, and China, while it's doing better than either America or Russia, has its own longstanding problems that are getting worse.
Chinese policy makers became alarmed at the end of last year by how sharply growth had slowed after Mr. Xi tightened controls on private businesses, from tech giants to property developers. Meanwhile, China’s stringent Covid lockdowns, part of Mr. Xi’s approach to handling the crisis, have ramped up again as Covid cases surge, hurting both consumer spending and factory output...
As Beijing works to manage the entente with Russian President Vladimir Putin while preventing a collapse in its relationship with the West, underpinning the disquiet is the plunge in economic growth to 4% in the fourth quarter from 18.3% at the beginning of 2021. Officials are now speaking of a “course correction” to mitigate some of the effects of Mr. Xi’s policies.
Which is not the kind of thing you say unless you smell weakness.
Behind closed doors at a December conference to set the 2022 economic agenda, Mr. Xi even appeared to acknowledge that wealth redistribution is hard to do when growth is slowing. Common prosperity, he told officials, according to people briefed on the remarks, was about “making the cake bigger first,” and then dividing it more equally.
It figures that a Chinese Communist leader would see economic common sense on wealth redistribution before Joe Biden will.
Manchin: I Don’t See Inflation, Gas Prices Declining ‘At All’ – Have to ‘Get Your Financial House in Order’
On Tuesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “Situation Room,” Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) said that he doesn’t see gas prices or inflation decreasing “at all.” And argued that “you’ve got to get your financial house in order” and ensure American energy independence.
Host Wolf Blitzer asked, “The president is also blaming the high gas prices right now — and the inflation — he’s blaming Russia, labeling it Putin’s price hike. Can the White House really though, claim Putin is solely responsible? Because prices, as you know, have been rising long before the Russian invasion.”
Manchin responded, “Well, no doubt about it, that’s made a great increase, as far as in the price of fuel at the pump. But the inflation is what’s killing all of us. I can tell you, inflation is hurting every West Virginian. And everybody that goes to the store or drives to work or whatever is seeing it directly affecting their decisions they’re making and how they’re providing for their family. Inflation is the one killer. It is a tax. Inflation is a tax, no matter how you look at it. And you’ve got to get your financial house in order. You’ve got to have a tax code that works. You’ve got to fight the high cost of prescription drugs. And we’ve got to also — we can walk and chew with our climate positions in our country by basically making sure that we’re energy independent. We have the cleanest fossil fuels. We produce them cleaner than anybody. And also, we have the ability to invest in the new technology and the cleaner technology that we need for a better climate. We can do it all.”
Blitzer then asked, “Inflation right now as bad as it’s been…in 40 years. It’s pretty serious. Do you believe inflation and gas prices, for that matter, Senator, are only going to get worse before they get better?”
Manchin answered, “I don’t see them regressing at all. I called this a long time ago, last year, with everything that I saw and everybody that I talked to that I believed had the know-how and the knowledge to explain to me and show to me the graphs. We were in unchartered territory, and when everybody was saying it was going to be transitory, it will go away in a month or two, there was no way that I saw [with] what they were showing me that that would happen. And I said, before we go down the path of a major bill and spend another $3 trillion, let’s take a pause, let’s look at what we’re doing. Because we don’t know what inflation’s going to do, we don’t know what COVID’s going to come back, and we don’t know basically the geopolitical unrest. Well, guess what, inflation came back and it’s now basically here and it’s growing. We’re at 7.9%. And then you have the COVID, we had the Omicron come, that was absolutely devastating. And then, on top of that, we had the geopolitical unrest that turned into a war, an unconscionable war, Putin’s war on Ukraine, and these innocent people, what they’re facing now is just unbelievable. So, we have to basically be stable and make sure we take care of [ourselves], be strong enough to help our friends and neighbors.”
