    snip

    Amazon reportedly plans to lay off 10,000 corporate and technology employees as soon as this week.


    The cuts would affect the company's devices organization, retail division and human resources, people familiar with the matter told The New York Times.

    The move would mark the largest job cut in Amazon's history, representing 3% of its corporate employees and 1% of its global workforce, according to the outlet.

    Full Democrat Control for 2 years brings us even more bad news. Or, for those looking to have people hit the bricks, this may be good news. What is sad is the voters who were blind to the train wreck and voted Democrat for the Senate

    Oh well, grid lock will be there in January and maybe we can finally tamp down this bad news thanks to Full Democrat Control

    Just saw a story that Bezos is going to leave a huge part of his fortune to charity only to kick thousands of the people who made him rich to the curb. I wonder if the Washington Post is going to comment on his hypocrisy and greed?

    Have you guys noticed how all companies who are announcing layoffs waited until AFTER the election? I did.

    Aren't you the guy who calls out whataboutisms almost daily? Under Biden everything has tanked due to his policies. The layoffs are on him.

    the economy is a train wreck. It didn't matter as the media was performing a full-press DNC messaging

    If you don't think the media can get folks to move, how in the heck does a Beto in TX even get on a ballot? How could the media not grill Charlie Crist in FL about his jumping parties for his own personal gain? How could they not even report on the train wreck economy?

    Biden isn't the cause of any "massive" inflation. He's responsible for maybe 1%. There is NOTHING that Democrate policies have to do with the tech layoffs. The rhetoric being spouted here is the same as before the elections......people didn't buy it then and they don't now.
    Well, people that can think aren't buying it.

    sore losers?

    Do you think 10,000 people losing their positions is a cause for celebration?

    Do you think inflation is a cause for celebration?

    How about rampant crime; another cause for celebration?

    High energy costs as well as shortages of home heating oil another cause for celebration?

    If you consider those victories, then you may want to try a little soul searching.

    But what the heck, Democrats have the Senate so hip hip hooray and to heck with the avg folks

    Mass layoffs may cause the Fed to stop the rate hikes it's been doing all year, which has begun to crash the housing market and make home ownership unaffordable. Well, I guess if people are losing their jobs, they weren't going to buy a house anyway. Fantastic work dems!
