I saw this number on another post about the same article. And the original math was something like 10 million is 1% of a billion. And Bezos is worth ~250 billion.

So 10 million would be 1/250 of 1% of his wealth. And i did the math to see what that would amount to for a normal person.

If you have $100k in total (savings, investing, properties etc), 1% would be $1000. And 1/250 of that is $4.

So if Bezos was someone who had around $100k in total, the amount he was asked to pay to clean up the entire towns shit is $4.

Someone please check my math.

However, why do Americans say "Fourth of July" then?

I fully agree with the content OP posted.

But I cannot help myself.

Her woes have not stopped. , who has spoken to the national press about the issue before, has been targeted by vandals and has even received death threats since speaking out.

Adding insult to injury.

This is a shit post now ?

Media headlines that use the word lobbying probably do it so that people don't take up arms. If they were to instead call it bribery, I think a lot more people would take issue with the whole process.

Scale that up and the final form is insurance that's controlled by the government. I fully support that btw, the government is supposed to represent the interests of the people (at least in an ideal democracy)
