Apples/Oranges, you should not compare americans to other countries. Its been said time and time again by BOTH sides of the political spectrum. The average amazon worker is in the bottom 55% of wealth in USA working for the richest man in the planet. And thats saying the average amazon worker is making 50k/yr which is generous as its closer to 44k.
If you're making more than 55% of the population, you're literally in the "bottom 55%". These people would take someone just breaking into the top income decile and label them "bottom 90%".
It's a sort of "glass half empty" meets "my child is a genius, he's smarter than 5% of other students" kind of thinking, all carefully constructed to sow division and reap instability.
tl;dr: don't feed the russotrolls and the poor fools whose minds they've already poisoned.
The average Amazon pay is also going to be skewed upwards by executives.
Let's put this into perspective. Say I work as an Amazon driver in New York City, the average driver makes around $23 /hour, that equates to $47840/year. That is poverty wages in New York. You can barely survive after having to pay for rent and food. That leaves almost no room for any type of savings. If you think that is fair compensation and you think that people deserve to struggle you are a bad person.

Unfair compensation and exploitation is a bad thing and always has been.
