So we should just make almost 2 million Americans unemployed because some execs shredded some papers. I don't know if you know anything about retail work, but they pay less than Amazon does, very few actually pay over $15 an hour, Walmart starts you out at $12 an hour.

If Amazon were broken up it'd create more jobs. Sure, they may pay less, but Amazon has centralized a lot of work to increase efficiency.

We shouldn't break them up just because they shredded some papers. There are many more reasons than that.
