What does Jeff’s yacht cost? Half a billion? And he paid to widen a canal to dock it?

We do not tax these people anywhere near enough.

Y'know what would fix this? Broad wave of hands a comp-an-y stooore! Amazon should just provide them housing. Since they would be living in corporate housing and that isn't free, we could get them to pay rent! Oh and they would also need food to eat, so we can have our store provide that for them. Food isnt free though...

Time to boycott the company.

Nobody is going to boycott Amazon. Too many rely on AWS.

Totally understand your point. They will never lose enough customers to actually feel it.

That being said, I'm doing my part.

You're using AWS unknowingly

I wish I could avoid aws, but learning how to use a new cloud host is expensive and time consuming. And the other choices aren’t that much better

Meanwhile, local businesses in towns everywhere struggle to hire employees because Amazon pays better. Messed up.
