> Unless you're in the "billionaires must not exist" camp, which we could argue about, they'll still be very rich, given the scale and success of their businesses. A net worth of $50 billion vs $150 billion doesn't change all that much, for the U.S. treasury or Bezos. They should be okay with $10 million. Average worker will never be able to accumulate even $1 million during their lifetime. > There are many thousands of Amazon workers making six figure salaries. Amazon has 1,298,000 workers. The 1% you are referring to, does not make Amazon a good company. Furthermore, given how much money Bezos was able to skim, the six figures are still laughable. > The fact that low skilled jobs pay crap is in no way unique to Amazon Yes, because we don't have proper regulation - like making sure highest pay is no more than 10x of lowest pay or linking minimum wage to company global revenue (with a minimum threshold). > and I doubt Bezos or Musk would object for reasons of greed. They would object, because people on UBI wouldn't have to work in their sweatshops. > like they can actually make humanity space-faring, Corporations are not motivated by humanity > provide world-wide high speed internet to poor villages To help with surveillance, data mining and control. > move toxic industries off-world, etc. Only if it is profitable. More likely they would move banking off-world to shield themselves from paying taxes.
