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.

Dudes a psychopath, money is absolutely meaningless to him at this point and everything all at once and just wants to control and cause suffering. He's the equivalent of Vlad the Impaler he's just not making the suffering as obvious.

Exactly. Like trying to not be a dick is the same as not being one.

If I were Bezos, any worker that tried to unionize would be fired immediately. No one needs that bullshit.

Yes, the American taxpayers are subsidizing corporate workers...SNAP, Sec 8 housing, etc.

It’s laughable that some of these billionaires call themselves *philanthropist’s* it’s all marketing. We need to bring back truth in advertising.

He's sick with greed like most of the other rich people. Greed is the #1 problem in the USA. Well, that and white supremacy.
