Jeff Bezos has gotten $78 billion richer during the pandemic and Amazon has paid zero federal taxes for 3 years. It’s not just a matter of how we can be OK with that. It makes you wonder how even he can be OK with that. #WealthTax

Almost every single person will always seek to pay less taxes if possible. Some even break laws to do so. To expect differently from the wealthy is bizzare Shame politicians whose job it is to prevent this yet profit by keeping loopholes open.

America’s national religion is capitalism and the worship of money/wealth.The root of all evil is money and America made it a religion. Starting to understand why America is the most evil, corrupt nation on Earth yet? Why would he or any other billionaire care about paying taxes?

Businesses > People. I’m not sure how that trend isn’t considered fact at this point. I rather just not pay taxes than try get Bezos too. Tax dollar don’t goto anything Most care about anyway, unless war is on your menu.

Many ultra wealthy ppl can be exceptionally greedy & soulless. Many companies don’t pay fair living wage to their employees on whose backs they & their founders became billionaires. Many companies don’t provide their employees with healthcare. GREED IS A NEVER ENDING EPIDEMIC.!!

Marianne, the so called “law makers” are beholden to corporate entities. Without a complete overhaul, absolutely nothing is going to change.

Because governments habe dictated what businesses can and can't operate. By mandate they have crushed small businesses and heavily subsidized mega corporations, increasing wealth inequality and destroying lives. Government did this.
