This is objectively a lie, Jeff Bezos TOTAL compensation is 1.6MM USD, which is a lot but not the 11MM the article claims.

Unless the article is conflating the appreciation of his shares in AMZN as 'pay', which is outrageous. Anyone could have bought AMZN shares for pennies at one point, why is it his fault he owns something going up in value?

humans need labor to enjoy life at its fullest. labor with a purpose. modern corporate wagecucking gives you no purpose most of the times and strips you away of the time to find it anywhere else.

which is exactly what commies were doing in soviet russia: three clerks to fetch you a piece of meat because of forced employment. not even feudal serfdom was so unnatural for the human soul.

You need to do a little more research.
Also, no risk is worth $11 million per hour when someone in the same company is making $12 per hour. If your company is really that successful, then your workers should be paid for their work accordingly. Only in the 1990's did making 3 figures more than your lowest-paid employee become acceptable at all, and this literal faggot is showing how it's been taken way too far.

I genuinely believe there needs to be a cap on income. Does anyone really need Bezos levels of wealth? No, because with a couple hundred Bezos the wealth entirely accumulates at the top, and these people have the resources to make sure it stays that way, and even accelerates.

Anyone with a functioning brain sees this system does not reward fairly. That's why hard work doesn't matter when all you're fighting for is the scraps left over by the mega rich. Fucking think.

A system where you get rewarded by maybe earning twice what the other, less productive members of society earn, is reasonable. Some incentive is not a bad thing. Look at Denmark. Surgeons earn maybe 50% more than teachers, who earn as much as delivery people. Fucking fair. A system where you earn a million times, literally like Bezos, is fucking stupid.
