At this point, the failure of supply side economics is very obvious

196 billion of that is literally Amazon though. It's not like he's sitting on cash. 4 billion is still hoarding though. Just saying

yes many many billions AGO

that's for him to decide.

Build a company that's worth 200 Billion. If you don't like how much your pay is then do something about instead of complaining about it. Get a new job, start a business, go to school. I'll never make that type of money but can't be mad at him. I use Amazon. My choice.
It's a power play. The more control he has over a company as huge as Amazon, the more insulated he is to external effects.

Don’t use amazon. If you’re a spiritual person then you know his judgement is coming.

Have heard Paul Craig Roberts, who worked in Reagan's Treasury depart, that he thinks some things need to be Nationalized. We'd have to B careful about how far we could go with Corporations on that. Airlines & pharma sound like good ideas for that. Maybe 30-30-30% setup 10% tax.

At this point it’s just grotesque. This is why I won’t buy cheap Chinese goods from Amazon.

that is the effect of stock markets. The money is not based on honest work but on the manipulation of values. During the biggest part of the lock down we could all see who and what was essential to life and it wasn't the stock markets.
