Lawsuit against Amazon filed in tornado swarm that left 6 dead in Illinois warehouseThe family of an Amazon.com delivery truck driver in Illinois who died in December when a warehouse was destroyed by a swarm of tornadoes that killed six people there, filed a lawsuit against the online retailer on Monday over his death. Guys, I’d Amazon has to pay for this lawsuit, then it won’t be able to pay just $15 an hour to others workers AND deny them benefits. I mean, have we thought about how devastating this would be to Jeff Bezos? Of course. In a capitalist country there is always someone to blame. About time Amazon was taken to answer.
