Idk Bezos, maybe in order to help the 'least affluent' you should just let them fucking unionize? But no, that would contradict this 'benevolent oligarch' shtick you've got going.
indeed. a "mere" single billion is still more than anyone could spend in many lifetimes, unless you "cheat" by buying a football team or something. even 10 million is an amount of wealth that is absolutely incomprehensible to most people. 1 million is a pipe dream for many, though now we're in a range that includes 20-25% of Americans.
The way wealth scales under capitalism is absolutely insane. well beyond our ability to really internalize/conceptualize.
Dude charges money for his precious "Democracy Dies in Darkness" news mouthpiece. He has a paywall for his propaganda rag. What the fuck? Billionaires can't even do yellow journalism right.

or give them a mere half of his money. he could give the poor a hundred billion and still have a hundred billion. money is so dumb.

10 million is also "Retiring with some comfort at 65" for maybe 10 Americans, but probably fewer given current rising prices on everything.
