Anyway, I remember when the Australian government first required online purchases from Amazon etc. to pay the same tax brick & mortar stores have long had to pay. The change was brought in by our conservative government and so naturally a lot of people criticised that move as being at the behest of ol' Harvey (the outspoken conservative owner of a big retail company). But really, it was just an obvious move and a rare W from the LNP levelling the playing field and requiring large multinationals to pay their fair share.

Capitalist profit is exploitation. Labor can be beautiful, if owned by the Workers.
I wasn't referring to any form of physical work, I mean specifically within capitalism. Be it Amazon or otherwise.
I think you might be better understood if you refer to employment instead.
