Probably isn’t that significant relative to wealth, and in Bezos case that wealth is built on the backs of warehouse employees who have to use food stamps and piss in bottles instead of taking a bathroom break.

Ah yes, I've run into the Earth arbiter and judge of significance of charitable giving.

Some days I wish Bezos et al would reduce their philanthropic giving to $0 for a calendar year and see what people have to say about their previous stingy behavior.

No you got that bass ackwards. He employs thousands of workers who thanks to food stamps can.demsnd a higher wage. The dole and the stamp INCREASES the wage people demand and not decreases it. People work in the job that's least unacceptable to them.
