I don’t know whether we should believe them or not but their suggestion is to make a fund like this it needs to be open to public donations (I assume that means some sort of charitable tax break which is shitty enough on its own)

Playing devil's advocate somewhat, as u understand it (i.e. read on the internet somewhere) the type of fund that was set up had a regulatory requirement that it is open to public donations. They utterly fucked the wording though.
[Edit] ^ that. Except it's not as if Amazon pays taxes anyway.

Apologies if we had this before and I missed it, but Amazon set up a fund and asked for public donations to pay their staff. Wouldn’t use the tax-cheating, high street destroying, exploitationist scumbags at the best of times, but this is pretty fucking low.
