Opinion | Tornados Can Kill. So Does Amazon’s Business Model

Old-school home-improvement contractors have a piece of folk wisdom they love to share with prospective clients.

“Listen,” they like to say. “I can do this job for you fast. I can do this job for you cheap. I can do this job for you good. Pick any two—but I can’t do all three.”

Work done fast and cheap, this folk wisdom understands, ends up sacrificing quality. Want cheap and good? That’ll cost you. Want quality on the cheap? That’s going to take a lot longer.

Within Corporate America, the brazen Bezos hostility to trade unions hardly stands alone. Our nation’s corporate giants have been on a ferocious 50-year offensive against collective bargaining.

This wisdom has been around, in one form or another, for almost forever. But not everyone holds to it. Take billionaire Jeff Bezos, for instance. His Amazon empire prides itself on delivering on all three fronts: good results

Kudlow: Save America, kill the bill … and defend the ‘deplorables’

‘Kudlow’ discusses wrongdoing as progressives relentlessly slam Democrat Sen. Joe Manchin for rejecting ‘Build Back Better’.

She ripped into Manchin. Undoubtedly, she was following the orders of the president or chief of staff Ron Klain or domestic policy adviser Susan Rice. It was more a temper tantrum than a policy response.

That’s no way to win friends and influence people. But all the far-left progressives had been going after Manchin.

Tornados Can Kill. So Can Amazon’s Business Model.

To deliver quality fast and cheap, Amazon sacrificed the good that should have been a safe workplace for Craig Yost and his fellow warehouse workers. And Amazon is doing its best to make sure that this sacrificing — by workers — continues. The company has been actively exercising its considerable corporate power to prevent the one turn of events that could reliably keep Amazon on its safety toes: an active union presence at every Amazon worksite.

Earlier this year, Amazon quashed a landmark union organizing drive at its Bessemer, Alabama warehouse via assorted subterfuges that the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union’s national president would later describe as “intimidation and interference” that “prevented workers from having a fair say in whether they wanted a union.” A National Labor Relations Board regional office last month agreed and ordered a do-over on the election.

But let’s be careful not to pick only
