Maybe, but property rights are more important than your thoughts on corruption. After all, he legally earned his money.

Having done my dissertation paper on the importance of property rights, I fully agree with you.

Then why the hell do they never pay anything like property taxes/taxes in general, Amazon literally has made billions in profit in America but payed 0 dollars in taxes this year, same as Netflix and a majority of billionaires.

FTFY.

Although payed exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in:

  • Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. The deck is yet to be payed.

  • Payed out when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. The rope is payed out! You can pull now.

Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment.

Beep, boop, I'm a bot

Because they don’t get salary, their wealth grows because cost of their property grows. They pay taxes whenever they sell something.

So Amazon one of the biggest companies in the world doesn't get to pay taxes? And the others?

So basically they could be paying taxes that help Infrastructure, schooling and SS/society in general but just don't?

Man America really is the worst 1st world country to live in

And people in America wonder why the entire world thinks America is just shit
