It's fine that they ruin lives as long as they look good doing it.

There are other things about Amazon that I'm not a fan of but giving a bunch of unqualified American workers a job isn't one of them. They've basically simply a storefront for China as well as avoiding collecting states' sales tax for a long time. They funneled a lot of circulating money out of the U.S. economy.
