Current Events > Rotterdam to dismantle historic bridge for Jeff Bezos' superyacht to pass.

(+) Yeah! (+)

I see so you think everyone would've been better off if he never created Amazon?

Rich people simps would be the same kind of people who would defend royalty and shit back in the day.

"King Bezos has royal blood and his family was appointed to rule us by god! Stop being jelly."

And the right calls us the "cucks". Get fuckin real.

i never said anything remotely close to that, so where in the world did you get that from? o_o

Well, I pointed out how his endeavors benefit the lives of millions of people and you promptly dismissed it

i didn't dismiss it. i ignored it because it was irrelevant to the points i made. but, sure, just to humor you .... i aknowledge that Amazon provides a benefit to millions of people through convenience.

but i still stand by every point i made about why i don't like the fact that Bezos has as much wealth as he does. and i don't see how that acknowledgement affects anything i said.

it's obscene to me that he makes like 3000x the amount of the actual workers do.

This is one of those complaints I've never understood people levying against bezos specifically. He has an $80,000 a year salary. He doesn't get stock options or bonuses. He even used to give stock to employees so they could have a stake in the company. His wealth is built entirely on the value of company and the investments he's been able to make by selling stock from that company. Complain about his warehouse conditions or any number of valid things, but it's not like he's the CEO of Walmart paying himself tens of millions of dollars a year or Elon Musk making $500 million in stock options.

Bezos is like the textbook definition of what people want CEOs to get paid and he still gets shit on for apparently paying himself too much.

But he earned that wealth. Millions of people around the world use something he created and they use it because they see value in it. That creates profit. He then went and redistributed that profit to the thousands of people directly and indirectly involved in the production of this yacht. What exactly do you see wrong with this picture?

But he earned that wealth.
