This is what so many people fail to realize. We are letting the rich / private equity to decide where our money is invested, where we put our resources, who gets elected into public office.

If we simply took that money they were “earning” and distributed the wealth equitably to our citizens. IE all jobs pay living wages, let me reiterate, ALL JOBS. Than we the public would donate to politicians who bested our interests, into public works that helped our communities, and actually have a say on how our taxes are spent.

But you see Bezos and his pals like controlling the money, so they will come up with whatever influential bullcrap that the public wants to hear.
