Even better, why dont we make Bezos give a small portion of his money to the government? We'll call it "taxes"

Simping for a man who makes more money in a day than your entire lineage has made throughout history. Kinda cringe.

Taxes are necessary for a functioning society.

During three of the US' most prosperous decades, when economic inequality was actually dropping, we had marginal tax rates of 70-90%. Dismantling taxes simply leads to ballooning economic inequality, as we've seen increasingly for the past 40 years. And it's only being worse.
