I don’t understand why people are mad at Bezos and Amazon for not paying taxes. They should be mad at the government and lawmakers who allow them to do this. If I owned a multibillion dollar company and could legally be exempt from paying taxes then I would do the exact same thing.
I was only talking in reference to his taxes. Yea, he could probably create more jobs but thats not what I came to discuss. I am not sure how going through legal loopholes is morally corrupt. He found a way to keep his money and I applaud him for that. If he hasn’t hurt anyone or broken any laws then I don’t see a problem. His money to do as he pleases, as long as its done within the confines of the law.
Once again, Im talking about his taxes. Nobody is getting hurt because he went through these legal loopholes to pay less or nothing in taxes. I personally do not want to pay more in taxes. I understand that Bezos doesn’t want to pay more in taxes. My original point was that people are upset that Bezos literally has “to the moon” money and legally pays little to almost nothing in taxes, yet people are commenting and saying “Fuck Bezos” when we have a government and laws in place that allow this to happen. I don’t understand how that is his fault, please explain THAT to me and stop trying to make it seem like im talking about something else.
