I'd use the original post as an example, the blame was all laid at Amazon's door. I don't remember a similar post when Toyota, Walmart or Foxconn (who aren't famed for their good treatment of staff) had subsidies.
I think we'll have to agree to disagree. My view is that the countries, states, etc are most culpable and the best way of avoiding these subsidies is to not offer them, not to expect them not to be taken.

No I don't believe this is the case, it may bring renewed focus on it and introduce it to those previously unaware though.
Amazon are a particular target because of the piss poor pay and treatment of staff in their distro operations.
I am not adverse to incentives or subsidies from the state to private firms, but it seems largely to be all give and no take.
