 "Federal labor regulator says delivery drivers are Amazon employees"

Previously Amazon avoided working with unions, by classifying employees as "third-party contractors".  Now a regional National Labor Relations Board director said that the company is really an employer.  And so this ruling will essentially force Amazon to work with unions.

You know it's ironic that left-wing Jeff Bezos, who tries to force an agenda of government control to supposedly protect the everyday person, is actually the one who is trying to dance and bullshit his way around the very "Big Brother" laws he promotes.

Even his own paper the Washington Post admits defeat:
