Amazon is not doing this for the benefit of homeless folks. They&#x27;re in it for the cheap labor and tax breaks, which is fine except that the social safety net in the USA is full of holes.<p>No one negotiated to keep homeless shelters open so that the workers could actually DO nigh-shift work. No one counseled the workers on the financial implications of &quot;seasonal work&quot; and how small of a grain of salt to take when a company says the temp work &quot;might&quot; become permanent.<p>I don&#x27;t blame Amazon, but I do think they were at least naive about the scope of the project and the chance for success given the circumstances of homeless people.
