How are any of those jobs "created by rich people"?

[candiodari]

Google SWE: billionaire Google founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page

Amazon SWE: "richest man in the world" Jeff Bezos

Meta SWE: billionaire founder Mark Zuckerberg

Netflix SWE: billionaire Reed Hastings

Microsoft SWE: "richest man in the world" Bill Gates

Then we get into the "mere" hundreds of millions.

They created those jobs, and obviously they're very, very wealthy.

Wow, way to prove my point. Bezos and Gates cannot create a single job in Amazon or Microsoft (Gates isn't even on MS's board anymore). Brin and Page can probably create whatever job they want, but most engineers don't report up to them and cannot be fired by them. So only 1/3 of the people you posted about (Hastings; Zuckerberg) even are in a position to fire someone working at the company, and probably don't know who those people are. Meanwhile, if all six of them dropped dead tomorrow, the only people whose job would be in peril would be their personal assistants, helicopter pilots, etc. Those are the jobs "created" by the founders you listed.

You will still have silly pretentious people that use Windows and Amazon every day and will tell you that these guys are bad.

Start with your vote, kids: use something else, do not buy from them. It is what I would do, in fact, if I had that thinking.
