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.

Their "charity" is just tax write-offs. And we all know it. It gets them more money, period.

He can because it's legal and he can because Americans have accepted that as long as something is legal it's moral.

Because there is something deeply wrong with the way his mind functions.

He can do all that because it is legal. Just as all of the financial/corporate fraud & theft since 1999 to today has been and is legal. By the law. Oh, guess who's writing the law? (Surely we can expect large number of wimpy related tweets from Squad & Co. in days to come.)

Stock market gains. Not difficult to understand.

Total disconnection from his heart chakra, I suspect.

It’s ultimately not economic justice @JeffBezos lacks. It’s a heart. That’s his legacy. Not creating a trillion dollar empire, but being inhuman and worthless to human progress.
