Jeff Bezos started Amazon and worked to expand it for decades. The company didn’t make a profit for something like 20 years (but kept raising money and expanding). Sounds like labor to me
Profit can be distorted based on how much personnel are being paid.
If you’re seriously trying to argue Bezos earned his wealth, then you’re part of the problem and I hope more people hold you socially accountable for it.
The difference between the wealth they created and the wealth they received was still the product of their labor, not Jeff Bezos. Do you think Lockheed shareholders got us to the moon, and not ya know, the engineers and scientists?
Do you think billionaires got their money through their own labor?

Do you think the millions of underpaid workers had anything to do with it?
They were paid the wage they signed the contract for. Underpaid scoring to whom?

If employees create negative wealth because the project fails, do they have to pay it back?
Oh, you only want employees to have 100% of the profit, with 0% of any loss
Idk why you’re licking boots without even being asked to.
The question was “whose labor do billionaires get their wealth from” and the answer is “the workers”
And that’s how it should be, since the workers did not take a financial risk to start a company
The workers don’t carry a financial risk lmao they risk not being able to pay rent next month. The capitalist only risks becoming a worker at worst.
Why are you so invested in licking your superior’s boots?
