All shareholders of TSLA, AMZN, and FB also improved their position. Meanwhile, you continually support endless war spending that COULD have helped those facing hunger. Knock off the dramatic posturing, you warmongering phony.

You cannot fathom why the guy that owns the company that allowed people to shop from home did well during a pandemic and/government mandated lockdowns because people were afraid to go to stores and catch a deadly virus?

Oh I can. The people want it that way. Or they’d vote differently.

This is mainly due to the share price of their company’s stocks going up. Their net worth can also go down significantly if the stock prices crash. This statement says more about which stocks investors put their money in during the pandemic.

Answer this question: Why did they get so much richer?

This is what happens when mainly democratic politicians do the bidding of the billionaire class and imposes draconian lockdowns on everyone except the billionaires!

All of it… … because the @federalreserve manipulates markets, prints trillions in Wall St WELFARE (under instructions from Congress), and channels the herd into stocks, via interest rate suppression & QE.
