Do we shed a tear for the coal-fired plant operator now forced to pay for scrubbers? No. As such, we shan't cry over Amazon's costs rising ever so slightly to internalize the previously externalized cost of marginalizing their warehouse employees.
When an employer doesn't pay an employee a fair wage, they're being subsidized, either by the government (Walmart is an excellent example; their literature specifically instructs their associates on how to collect government benefits due to them not paying a living wage) or by society as a whole.
From an economics perspective, would you not prefer consumers be responsible for the full cost of the good/services they're receiving?
