This topic is on wealth inequality rather than amazon practices.
I am not sure where this was from but it went something like this like that:
If there was a staircase and you could take a step for each 100k networth you own. Somewhere around 50% would not be able to take a first step, rest would barely get to 10-20.
Bezos would be half way to International Space Station.
Just think about it and say its all normal and ok.
Lets go back 200 years - just because slavery is considered normal and lawful it doesn't mean its not immoral.

- takeda 6y agoI like to think it that way: Imagine having a job that makes you 1 million dollars a year. Even if you didn't have to pay any taxes, someone else paid for all your living expenses and there was no inflation you would have to work for 171,600 years (yes, the same years we count from 1 A.D.) to get to the point Bezos is right now.
