Comments by "" (@shauncameron8390) on "How Billionaires Got $637 Billion Richer During The Pandemic" video.
That was during the Great Depression and World War 2. And even then, the rich didn't pay such a rate thanks to loopholes. How much did the US rich pay when times were good?

Maybe so, but they're the brains and architects of the work you do.

@StrikeDigital3D He's right.

@-SS-or-Quit- But Bezos has nothing to do with that. The blame goes to the mayors and governors who ordered the shut-down of all "non-essential" businesses that the majority of people either owned or worked for.

No. Governments are even worse than corporations.

@shamrock141 Bezos is a die-hard Democrat-voter.

But it fell, because the Soviet Union was no longer able to support itself and in turn was longer able to support the barely existent economies of its client states.

@tyrannosaurus62 Take that up with the government.

@alyssa.h Which one? Cuba or North Korea?

@alyssa.h Typical communist response.

Like in North Korea or Cuba?

Only for most of them to blow it on God knows what and it's right back to poverty and hunger.

Don't forget Apple.

No. Most of the poor will just squander the money having it end up right back in the pockets of those guys.

And he's not obligated to.

@BartSimpson-jd2vs If so, then morally he has the right to dictate the terms under which the money will be given.
