>>Making a profit through business operations was never his intention. You're wrong, OC. He has every intention to run Amazon profitably.

>Being a capitalist through and through, I cannot have a problem with >the insiders taking their profits when they can... I am a capitalist as well, and I do have a problem with insiders taking profits, because Amazon has never made a dime in profits and has actually LOST hundreds of millions of dollars. These guys hold about the same level of esteem in my eye that multi-level-marketers do. Bezos has orchestrated one of history's largest financial pyramid schemes, and nothing more. Making a profit through business operations was never his intention. He used to be a wall street hedge fund manager, not a bookseller. I have to agree with OC on this. There is a lack of ethics going on this company. Glenn
