The Amazon Spheres on the right of the photograph, three spherical conservatories that form part of the campus of Amazon's headquarters in Seattle, Washington, United States. Among the things that are most striking in Seattle is the immense divide between social classes. On the one hand, a number of destitute people living on the street, comparable only to the poorest cities in the world, and on the other, a very small number of very rich people to whom most of the city and services seem to be dedicated. The intermediate social class is fluid and volatile, represented by very young workers mostly employed on the front of new technologies which however are replaced with increasingly young people very quickly. The sustainability of a regime like the one triggered in Seattle therefore seems impossible and capable of generating long-term inequalities and poverty only.
