Assuming it was federal minimum wage of $7.25/hr and he was working 60 hour weeks with 20 hours of time and a half pay at $10.875 it would take exactly 9,149,826 years working 3120 hours a year for a total of 28,547,457,120 hours worked. Or if satan is nice and lets him have more time off and jeff only has to work 40 hours a week then he will have to work 15,994,695 years or a total of 33,268,965,600 hours. If only hell were real so billionaires could be adequately punished.
This isn't right - this all assumes he gets to keep his money. Now take $1500/month in rent, $200 in food, SS, sales tax, etc.
With this punishment, Bezos will eventually escape hell. That's not fair to the rest of us.
money he made
money he stole
Nah he should only get part time employment with hours that constantly change for no reason.
No overtime. We're going to slap the word "Manager" in his title so he doesn't qualify.
There is no justice after death. The only way to make things right is to make them right now.
Why wait until he's dead? In my world, he can start this regimen tomorrow.
Your calculations are gross income. He should also have to pay Satan his tax, as well as pay for food and housing. With all that, he would have very little saved and take much longer.
Fuck being nice, he doesn't even get bathroom breaks and has to pee in a bottle. His paycheck should include all the taxes that we plebs have to pay, and at a Trumpian tax rate. Matter of fact the amount he has to earn back should include all of the tax he didn't pay when he was alive.
Im no religious person, but given this afterlife punishment has an end to it (once he finally finishes working all those hours), wouldn't this be more a purgatory than a hell?
If we assume Hell isn't real and dead people don't exist, it means we'll have to create our own justice.
But since billionaires are pretty consistent tyrants (exceptions exist, but they're rare) we should just have an intervention after the tenth million.
Then the additonal money in circulation can be used to post-scarcity up our society so that everyone gets a burger and a milkshake whenever they want one.
Thankfully, hell is real and the vast majority of billionaires are going there.
Matthew 19:24
Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God.
