Ok, but how does getting rich because of moving boxes at Amazon rather than Walmart make more sense?
- mrtesthah 4y agoMaybe our goal as a society shouldn’t be to decide who gets rich, but rather to do what it takes to ensure fair distribution of resources such that everyone’s basic needs for food, housing, healthcare, and education are met. That’s difficult to do when wealth is concentrated among a very small group of people.
- LudwigNagasena 4y agoThat’s also difficult when people set up dichotomies like Bezos vs his workers and disregard the entire world.
- mrtesthah 4y agoNo, not really. Pointing out the injustice of a company mistreating and burning out its workers in order to produce one of the richest billionaires, usefully illustrates the inequality we face globally.
- LudwigNagasena 4y agoEvidently it doesn't.
