But he earned that wealth. Millions of people around the world use something he created and they use it because they see value in it. That creates profit. He then went and redistributed that profit to the thousands of people directly and indirectly involved in the production of this yacht. What exactly do you see wrong with this picture?

i don't really want to completely derail this topic to go on a rant about why i dislike that, but in summary:

• he couldn't have earned that wealth without the work of tens of thousands of others who earn a fraction of what he does.
• he couldn't have earned that wealth without the trillions of dollars worth of infrastructure his company uses to profit.
• it's obscene to me that he makes like 3000x the amount of the actual workers do.
• taxpayers subsidize profits for companies like Amazon when their employees are so underpaid they qualify for welfare / food stamps / etc, which is absolutely fucked.

i dont really feel like getting into a big debate over this, just summarizing my thoughts.
