How can Jeff Bezos make $77B during the pandemic yet deny his workers sick and hazard pay, plus try to make it hard for Amazon workers to unionize? His being “charitable” doesn’t make up for that. No amount of private charity can compensate for a basic lack of economic justice.

"How can we allow him to do that?" is more the question to me.

Marianne Williamson reminds us of a powerful quote by Louis Brandeis ...”You can have large amounts of money concentrated in the hands of a very few or you can have democracy. You cannot have both.”

He does it because he can, there is no one to stop him. Who will stop him? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Charitable donations keep the oppressed beholding and the donator in control. Supremacy in a hidden form.

If people don’t want to work at Amazon, literally no one is forcing them to. If they don’t like the terms of their employment, no one is keeping them there. Just leave. Or is it that people will always be greedy and unsatisfied..?? 🤔

Capitalism, aka New Age Feudalism, that's how. And by using money, we all support this sociopathy. #DirectDemocracy #GiftEconomy

You’d think Bezos wouldn’t want to be a slave to his investors. Maybe that’s part of the reason his wife dumped him to find a real man.
