How much have people earned by working for Amazon? How much have people earned by selling their goods on Amazon?
It seems like you want to find some way to prevent individuals from being wildly successful, but I think you are overlooking the fact that his wealth is a fraction of the value what he started has provided to the economy.
You are concerned that Bezos has "accrue[d] that much wealth" but his wealthy is mostly stock which is basically just an indication of how valuable people think Amazon (and his other companies) are to the US (and world) economy. He doesn't have $150 billion in cash in his basement or bank.
If you want to think in terms of "How can we keep a company from providing this much value to the world?" then yes. If we could push everyone back to living in caves, there would be less disparity, but that probably isn't something most people want.
