General Discussion

Much like the Bill Clinton claim about job creation over the last 45 years. Use numbers, let people fact check because they are true.

The average American makes about 75k (damn close to what Bezos takes as salary, thus only paying SS and Medicare taxes on the salary of an average American) the average American spends just over $200 per day. (Seems likely when you factor in housing, car payment, food, utilities)

A billionaire (not many billions, just one) could spend 65k a day which would be equal to the average American spending $200.

Here is the kicker, that billionaire would be making 135k per day just at a 5% rate of return. Or basically the same amount per day as the average American makes in a year even with spending 65k each and every day. So a billionaire could spend 24 million a year, and still add 25.5 million to his wealth yearly, oh and it is basically tax free.

With Amazon using govt assistance for employees, infrastructure, etc, we are all basically subsidizing Bezos.
