Under Bernie's Make Billionaire's Pay Act, Jeff Bezos would owe $52 billion more in taxes and would still be $35 billion richer than he was before the pandemic. And that bill would raise enough revenue to cover all out-of-pocket healthcare costs of the American people this year.

Bezos does a much better job managing his money than the Federal government would. He creates jobs and serves millions of customers. Government buys bombs to kill innocent brown people in the middle east and squanders the rest by giving it to our enemies.

Ya, then he would close half of his warehouses and lay off thousands of workers, to save on tax money. Capitalism is good. Marxism and socialism is bad. You’re either a sheep or a lion. This is how the world works any way you look at it. You’re either a victim or a not....
