This is factually false because it assumes that the money Bezos takes are taken from other people. But the economy is not a zero sum game, otherwise we would still have the same world wide wealth as cavemen did. What Bezos made, his employees cumulatively made many times over and all that money goes through multiple transactions that can be taxed. Simply spreading out 100b$ to every American would give you a negligible amount of money to each one and then cause the loss of many jobs( you can't expect to spread the money a.k.a. not have rich people but at the same time have the enterprises they create).
