Good point, Bernie💙
If Jeff Bezos can afford a $500 million yacht, a $23 million mansion with 25 bathrooms and a rocket ship to blast a comedian to outer space, you know what? Amazon can afford to give its employees a $3 raise. I stand in strong solidarity with the Amazon workers walkout.

I would focus more on the extreme profits of Amazon as compared to the measly pay of their warehouse workers as the bone of contention, not Bezos. IMHO

You and Bernie are in Fantasy-Land! Communist/Marxist/Socialist Countries have the Super-Rich and the common people are Peasants! Photo of Socialist/Democrat Subway!
In the history of socialism, this has NEVER happened.

Walk, walk, walk Amazon workers. Walk until you are (finally) valued. Why would Bezos not want to share-he didn't build Amazon-everyone built it. Originator, staff, customers.

Of course Bernie has a yacht and 3 different multi million dollar homes himself

Gee, that could cost him over a million bucks a week, (for 10,000 employees)! Take them almost 20 years to dent that first billion!

He pays more in taxes every year than what you made on self help books or whatever in your whole life.

I don't find using the exploits of an owner or boss spending power to be much of an argument that can't be construed as petty jealousy over... bulk of workers without whom company would not run get paid a pittance under terrible conditions while Company clears BILLIONS in profits
