      why would one like him care about being bald? he could sleep with 2 to 3 different top model/beauty queen from every countries across the world every single day until the day he dies, he wouldn't spend more then what he just made today which is 13 billions lol.

      An engineer would always choose to be without hair. Looking after a hairsyle, washing hair, buying hair products is inefficient, as is wasting time worrying about it. Lots of astronauts shave their head. Efficiency is the reason why Einstein and Jobs wore the same outfit every day, they didn't have to think about it and could get on with doing more important things than concerning themselves with their appearance. The Fonz was a genius.

      @@chilli-iceolive-abode2447 It's essentially paper wealth. The Amazon model is a 'growth at all costs' model that relies of capital from investors to keep it afloat and sacrifices profit for expanding it's market share.
      This means that as an individual Jeff Bezos has two ways of raising hard currency for himself. The first is to sell a small amount of his stocks, which would raise funds but is rather short sighted. The second, and the method he most likely uses, is to take out credit. The thing is that credit and debt work very differently for billionaires like Bezos as banks will literally grant them an infinite line of credit in the knowledge that at some point he will sell his company, or part of it, and pay them back.
      For the super rich money works very differently to how it works for us peasants.

But one thing most people forget is that most of his net worth is not liquid cash , it's in form of investment , bonds and property not forgetting shares (which where most comes from) not just cash . Should he just sell his shares , investments ? And what happens when he sells the shares ? Does the stock decline afterwards and its value completely depreciated ?(certainly) . And what if went ahead and taxed the rich 70% ? Would they still invest in the economy or would they rather use foreign subsidiaries ? But the only thing people see is the net worth and how taking a piece wouldn't hurt him . And Amazon does pay tax , state and local taxes not forgetting payroll taxes and and wage taxes and a reminder that amazon reinvest in itself meaning taxable profits goes to investments translating to no federal income tax but they pay taxes nevertheless

Nobody, except now Wallmart in a small way, is competition. BT were the only one in the UK, until other companies were allowed into the network. Besos needs competition on the same scale his margins are. It's disgusting how rich he is, and how he treats his warehouse employees. Hes a tyrant. How wealthy he is, yet what amount has he given to children living on the streets, etc.

    • @TomCL-vb6xc
      @TomCL-vb6xc 3 роки тому +1

      Trap News Even capitalists should want Bezos and Amazon to pay their *fair* share in tax. I also think that Bezos, ethically, should give a lot of his obscene wealth back. I also think you describe one of the main issues of capitalism in that last remark - business under capitalism is about maximising profits at the expense of the workers and often the consumers. It’s really messed up that you word it like an understandable moral decision and not what it actually is - theft and hoarding. Also, capitalism is killing the planet at an *insane* rate. That’s the main reason socialism is experiencing a surge in popularity and I always remind people that there are very few people who actually read all of Marx that aren’t somewhat Marxist. Guy actually talked a lot of sense.

    • @TomCL-vb6xc
      @TomCL-vb6xc 3 роки тому +2

      Trap News All capitalists are killing the planet - some more than others but that isn’t the point. The carbon footprint of Amazon is enormous and Bezos - like all billionaires - treats his workers like shit (again, because that is what capitalism advocates). Everyone knows this as well, but seem to think that it’s up to the workers to simply leave. The idea of choice under capitalism is always much murkier than how capitalists portray it. If your options are to work for a piece of shit boss who exploits your labour for their own gain or have no money to survive and have basic neccesities, then, you know..... In simple terms, there isn’t much of a choice and blaming workers does nothing to solve any issues.

Please don’t tell me you are one of those weird nerds who incessantly defends Musk in the hope that he will actually do anything for anyone. Tesla himself wanted his products to be for everyone and ideally, free. Musk on the other hand is the usual sociopathic billionaire who sells incredibly expensive cars. Also - this shouldn’t be breaking news - but billionaires and corporations aren’t investing in space travel for the benefit of humanity hahaha. The race for the monopolisation and commercialisation of space travel is a pretty well-documented event.
