The fact that a worker who barely makes ends meet pays 10-20 times the taxes Amazon pays is... Fascinating in a dark way.

Similar to feudal peasants that used to pay up in the form of free labor and produce, while their noble overlords enjoyed massive privileges and zero taxes.

That is absolutely not a fact, lmao.

It is wrong because it should say 'more than 10-20 times..'. 10-20 times 0 would still be 0.
