Yeah, on the left-wing it's the other way around. Hunter Biden made his Dad rich.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

Jeff Bezos has made so much money this year that if he decided to give every Amazon employee a $100,000 xmas bonus he'd still have more money that he did on 31 December 2019.
What a fucking thought. We really live in a mad world.

Did he now? According to a Forbes estimate Joe Biden and his wife's net worth is $9 million. The couple’s fortune is mostly tied to public speaking engagements and book royalties, according to tax returns and financial disclosures released by the Biden campaign and published on the campaign’s website. (Link)

More detailed info on the Bidens' income between 1998 and 2019 here.

While the Bidens are undoubtedly very well off, it is absurd to speak of their wealth in conjunction with Jeff Bezos. Forbes estimates his net worth to be 186,000 million dollars. (Link). That's 20,666 times the Bidens' net worth.

The Bidens are at the poor end of the 1%. Bezos wealth is absurd and revolting when you consider the wages his company pays.

Biden is left-wing now? Sweet! When did that happen?

And you and I are probably at the poor end of the 3%.

It's estimated that there’s more biomass in chickens and turkeys than in all the world’s wild birds, and that the overall biomass in the animals we eat is more than 10 times that in the world's wild mammal population.
