He’s not ceo of MS anymore

Bezos isn’t CEO of Amazon. He’s still paying lots more.

Came here to see the discussion on this. My only assumption is he’s been paying more taxes than others. He’s been one of the few in favor of taxing the rich more.

He’s not taking full advantage of Trump’s tax system, and has been speaking out against it.
