    No feeding the poor from these guys. I’m all for having the super-duper-puper yachts but how about throwing more than a bone to the masses. For shits and grins, Bozos, er I mean Bezos could easily give a cool $500K to every man, woman, and child living below the poverty line and he’d still have deep pockets. 
    One of my issues with Amazon is that it seems their delivery people work all hours of the day and evening and I see them on weekends and worst of all on holidays also.  It’s outrageous.  The idea of a weekend is now a quaint notion from the 20th century.  It’s go go go go go now.  Everything has to be 365 24/7 now with things. I am tired of hearing about Amazon and bezos and do what I can to not support a company that runs things like that.
    Most of the delivery people at Amazon are complete boobs who have trouble matching the house number on the box with the number on the door.  About the only other job they might be able to perform is wrapping twist ties on the end of the Wonder Bread bags.

    Thanks buddy. That was the dumbest thing I've read today.

    Dividing Bezos's net worth by the number of people in the world living in poverty comes to about $2,500. Of course that doesn't take into account taxes on the sale of stock and the costs to determine who gets paid and distributing that cash.  So more like $1,000.

  • Apple AR/VR headset hitting some snags & may not make 2022 release

    How many people will buy this $1000 device for entertainment ?
    Are you serious?  The gaming market in the US alone is over $100 billion a year.  And who said this was just an entertainment device?

    How can an announced release of a rumored product that may or may not exist be "pushed back"?
