There's a pretty big difference between owning $180bn and owning Amazon. At this scale he's more like the monarch of Amazonland than the owner of Bob's Dry-cleaning.

I'm not sure that implies there should be a regime change in Amazonland, though. In some ways it implies the opposite. Annex Amazonland, overthrow King Bezos, and you're faced with the challenge of administering the damn thing yourself.

Bezos has already stoped administering Amazonland. The king has found ambitious lackeys to do that work.

Why don’t we overthrow the king, then reward those that remain to keep the whole thing going.
