    “BuT hE’s WoRtH tHaT mUcH bEcAuSe Of AlL tHe HaRd WoRk He’S bEeN dOiNg!”

    You tell that to his delivery drivers who can’t even scratch their nose while driving or that 1984-dystopia-esque automated surveillance system he puts in their vehicles flags it as “distracted driving” and punishes them.

    Oh and they don’t even make enough to raise a family.

      There is absolutely no amount of hard work that deserves that much money, absolutely none. You could run a marathon every single day for 50 years and I still wouldn’t say you deserved that much money.

      Not to defend the ultra-rich, but even most CEOs of small, shitty companies will not consider their employees’ well-being for one second if they they can the line go up for another half milimeter. It’s not helpful to consider just the most extreme cases like Bezos as “bad” and the low-tier ones as “not quite as bad”.
