Look, human nature is to actually amass wealth without creating value. We are lucky we live in a society where value creation and wealth acquisition are at least tangentially related.
The problem in my opinion is not that a single person gets so much wealth, but rather what they receive the wealth for. Amazon just made life easier for the masses to consume goods. IMO someone like Einstein deserves a lot more money and someone like Bezos less. The people inventing the actual science that then enables something like Amazon don't really get compensated -- and perhaps they should.
