What you focus on and what you achieve are not inherently related.
AFA focus, the US military is actually focused on putting as much power as possible in the hands of its commander in chief for US interests. It is not allowed to determine those interests.
If Bezos wants to express the ideology behind his life choices then I think that is great. If he doesn't then he should be upfront about that. Acting like everyone can be rational and driven by incremental money is a pointless conversation.

- yabadabadoes 7y ago> Destroying the world because they use energy Yes, and participating in blocking the Kyoto accord. You can feel as good as you want that you save a few people after displacing millions and covering countries in spent Uranium.. Then your grandchildren will die from ecological mismanagement and/or water shortages.. The military writes its own studies on these facts of climate change, it just ignores it's giant size role in bringing them about.
