Bezos on CNBC: "You could double the taxes I pay, and it's not gonna help that teacher in Queens. I promise you."

I love how we all accept this as truth, or as part of a "debate", when taxing the fuck out of them - even a "kind" regime where they're still unfathomably rich - would yield so much money for health care, infra, and so much more

@neurobashing Yeah, And while it's probably technically correct of Bezos to say that, that's because he pays almost nothing in taxes. We're not going to double taxes on him, we're going to f---ing soak him in taxes.
