I honestly cannot understand this attitude. It sounds like pure jealousy. You are saying that we should stop people from being too successful.
Bezos earned all of his wealth honestly. He offered products and services for prices that people were willing to pay. He did not steal. He did not force anyone into anything. If he is stupid rich, it is because he was able to provide things people wanted more effectively than anyone else.
How can you possibly justify punishing success? What right do we have to give him money for doing what we want, and then turning around and taking it away. What sort of message does that send to other people?
"Work hard and be successful, but not TOO successful..."
- mercer 7y agoI could go into the broader problem I have with a single person having that much wealth/power. But really, mostly it's that Bezos is a giant piece of shit. His company has a long history of controversy and anything good he does doesn't erase that. That has nothing to do with all the upstanding people in the world who are trying to be 'successful'.
