This is the problem with the socialist mentality in a nutshell:
In the hours before he wrote this post, Senator Sanders (or his aide) spent money on whatever he wanted to spend it on. And he didn’t spend money on whatever he didn’t feel like. Yet when Jeff Bezos did the same, it’s supposed to be a problem.
It’s his money, little dude. It’s vulgar to bitch about how people spend their money. Raising the issue of jewelry Bezos bought for his wife is extremely vulgar. Stop counting other people’s money. Stop trying to tell them how to spend it. If somebody is willing to donate to the causes you care about, show gratitude. If they aren’t willing, it’s their prerogative.
I’m not a huge fan of Bezos but I despise these attempts to spend somebody else’s money.
Bezos should have his funds appropriated by the state because he is an alien freak alone, before we get into any socialist redistribution policy.

not just that, but he doesn’t understand the difference between a for-profit business and a charity.

…though on second thought the confusion is understandable, as the press has been an arm of the government for some time, so it is natural for people of his political persuasion to view press jobs as safe lifetime sinecures just like government jobs.
