Tech companies in general and Amazon specifically seem scared to death of unionization. I think Amazon's actions in this matter are going to backfire tremendously.

...and anyone who's had to work with a union can understand why.

You mean like, most of the companies in Europe?

>>jhaywa+ZJ
Europe, which has a per-capita GDP ~1/3 lower than the US.

This didn't pass the smell test, and sure enough Monaco, Norway, Switzerland, Ireland, Iceland, all have higher per capita GDPs. Denmark, Sweden, Austria, and Finland are in the same ballpark or a little lower. Germany and Belgium are lower, but still above 1/3 lower.

UK and France are ~1/3 lower. Italy and Spain are ~50% lower.

some of those countries have smaller populations than some US municipalities, of which there are many wealthy ones to cherrypick data from.
