Amazon: Business Is Business

April 30, 2020

The truthy real news outfit published “Amazon turns to Chinese Firm on US Blacklist to Meet Thermal Camera Needs.” The write up points out that Zhejiang Dahua Technology Co Ltd is one of the outfits the US government does not buy from. Companies like Amazon are not constrained. But a deal is a deal.

Thermal or multi spectral cameras are just less expensive when sourced from the Middle Kingdom. Plus the cameras are needed to make sure the happy, well paid, motivated Amazon warehouse workers are not ill. The idea is that a snap of a worker with a fever turns up as a bright blob. Amazon’s professional and sensitive managers can then rush to assist the afflicted professional. When employee health is concerned, Amazon leaves no low cost supplier in the dark. Business is business, even in matters of financial probity and health.
