The run-up in Amazon stock price has boosted Bazos above Bill Gates again, and this time he might stay there a while.

I have noticed some backlash among some people I talk with, kind of like the Walmart fear/hate of years ago. Taking over the world, so to speak, killing retail jobs, hurting main street, etc. One difference seems to be Amazon's customer base is broader and the products offered are more diverse - so alot of people are hooked into the Amazon culture vs the Walmart customer. But it will be interesting to see if feelings of resentment grow or more become fans.

No, he's not the richest. They just think he's evil because he's jewish, gives a lot of money to his charitable foundation that helps third world countries, and supports Democratic candidates. You know evil stuff.
Oh, and then they place conspiracy theories on YouTube to fool people like Gina, because if you say something often enough the sheep just take it as fact and stop questioning it.

| Soros funds many groups, some of them do perform good works. Some of them do some not so good work for the group who rules the world. We had some threads about the organizations he funds. He works with the Bilderberg group, those ultra rich, powerful people who seek to run the world. ____________________
