I’m genuinely interested in what people who think of amazon as an evil company think it should do.

It hardly ever makes a profit. Any profit it makes is from AWS usually.

It is popular because it’s so cheap, which is why people buy there. So really the solutions can only be:

1. Raise prices and consumers suffer 2. Keep wages low and workers suffer 3. Stop existing.

I wonder how many people who complain about amazons working conditions don’t shop there and buy the same product for a higher price elsewhere. I’d guess not many.
