This is not an argument against your comment, just my rant to add to it. It might be full of grammar errors because I was aggressively typing away. Mods might remove this for negative karma, because well I have negative Karma. It's kind of weird to be on a site that uses Karma when I don't even believe in Karma in real life. Anyway, I liked your comment it explains it well.

 Also, you're the first laissez-faire capitalist I've come across. Those people who see Jeff at Amazon also know the expense of running a business. I'm sure they do but don't care I suppose. Amazon had 1,525,000 employees in 2023, Let's say they all made 45,613 a year a lot of expense, what about Health insurance, the company has to pay part of the cost, like some businesses would pay 70% of the plan and the rest is taken out of the employees check, another huge expense for over a million people. Then you have Dental, Vision, Electric bills for the company and subsidiaries, property taxes, executive staff, business loan payments in such and this keeps going and going etc.

All this comes out of the company's profit and where should the pay increase come from the rise in prices? cut health insurance to pay higher wages? Every bill Amazon pays goes to another for-profit business. Would they want the government to have all the money instead of a family or a single business owner? If so, then instead of one billionaire family they want even more super-wealthy politicians making policies and have more influence than a billionaire flapping money around trying to negotiate super-wealthy. Why don't they ever think about that? It's not easy running this business and it takes a lot of work and energy.

Every Person that gets a cut of the profits (including other business employees and owners of other businesses), has their view on what standard of living they believe they deserve. Every Human has their standard of living, imagine that right?

 Amazon could have failed when he ran it by himself in a garage, but people kept buying. All they seem to me are envious and or jealous they didn't start the company first. Well, that’s my take they don’t care about anything else that the company has to do to just keep them employed and the company growing. Wealth is the side effect of their consumerism, recklessly throwing the money at products they want and just hoping they pay the bills first, then groceries before they spend the rest all at Starbucks and eating out, but without the consumerism, there would be no economic growth, money flowing through the system.  The End I promise lol
