I don't think the poster you're replying to had that in mind. I think it was more a case of 'you catch more bees with honey' rather than draw the guy's ire unnecessarily, just make a law that does X to help people rather than call it the "F* BEZOS law that also helps people".

Maybe that's true, but parent's point stands.

We don't use honey to deal with poor thieves or people who emotionally abuse their spouses.

Why should we use honey to deal with a rich thief who emotionally abuses an entire labor force?

Because he was not breaking any laws or doing anything that dozens of other companies are not also doing. If we permit the system to exist as it is, we can't fairly blame someone who plays the game well by the poor rules we've made.
