I absolutely don't want to defend communism, I lived in Eastern Bloc and I prefer the flawed capitalism we have now. But you are not really correct. > The latter part hasn't happened It's true that Bezos doesn't own the whole USA but 3 men has more wealth than 150 million people. https://www.forbes.com/sites/noahkirsch/2017/11/09/the-3-richest-americans-hold-more-wealth-than-bottom-50-of-country-study-finds/ https://www.forbes.com/sites/noahkirsch/2017/11/09/the-3-ric...
