Seems strange as there is always an "unemployment rate", but Amazon is facing an unthinkable crisis in just a few years where they won't enough people to staff their warehouses. This means they won't be able to provide the next-day or same-day delivery service they've been working toward for years. Unless, of course, they just raise their hourly wages to literally outbid every other company, which then means they will pass that cost along to Amazon Prime members and service subscribers.
