It's interesting how the refrain is usually "the power of the free market", "let the free market decide" yada yada. However, as soon as workers decide to express their power by using their free market labor to push companies to do the right thing. All of a sudden people come out with the authoritarian dribble written above, and the "take politics out of the workplace" (which is literally a political position).

Worry less about the profits of a monopoly and more about the will of the people to do the right thing in lieu of some ostensible catastrophic profit loss that's more than likely not going to happen.

Also, this whole "programmers are going to turn into illegal rogue agents and sabotage amazon customers" is beyond absurd reactionary hysterics.
