Customer - HELLO AMAZON, WHERES MY PACKAGE? I JUST ORDERED IT 5 MINUTES AGO.
is it one of those energy saving buildings? i don't see any solar panels on the roof or anything.
Those tiny homes around it are made of scrap metal and other basic materials.
They are, and the thread doesn't have much context apart from linking to the article and a comment.
And what does that have to do with the warehouse?
Because it seems you are missing the point of the image and the contrast it presents.
Right? Like this would be a valid critique if this were a piece of modern art like a painting or a photo manipulation, but instead it's just cold reality.
I'm not missing anything, if the photo had been taken on the other side you'd have less of those small homes and more larger buildings (you can see a few buildings along the road running down the hill).

"I'm not missing the point!"
I can't tell if you are intentionally being obtuse or just really do not get it. No one gives a shit about the size of the warehouse.
I was coming in to post this picture lmaoClassic Latin American inequality
There's no simple way to do that without putting a large burden on smaller, more vulnerable businesses that need to rely on that exemption.
I'm aware of the whole wealth disparity and obvious imaging that the photo shows off. I'm not dismissing the fact that there are very poor people living in and around that area.
I'd rather we redistribute wealth to the common man and not exploit the poor, but sure let's have this discussion instead.
This reminds me of when I visited Beijing back in the late 90s, this was before all the preparations for the Olympics even started... Looked very much like that when I looked outside my hotel window. The other side was pretty much point-for-point what that photo shows.Classic Latin American inequality
