Prime Day boosts Bezos and Amazon!
Jeff Bezos keeps shattering wealth records and is now the richest man in recent history - adjusted for inflation. His fortune just crossed the $150B mark, more than $55B richer than Bill Gates, at number two. The milestone comes in the heat of Prime Day, which could ring up at least $3.4B within a 36-hour window. Wall Street expects a higher share price for Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) as a result.
R#1: We’re literally staving here in Reject Square and this AssHole or AH’s clearing $150 billion!
R#4: And you call me crazy!
R#1: You are crazy!
R#4: No more crazy than all those people working for pennies instead of standing up united and making demands!
TheRejects: Make demands! Make Demands! Make the AssHoles or AHs meet your Demands!
D: Can it be done SASMO?

Mr.SASMO: “Mr.” SASMO to you Jonathan!
J: Whatever!
Mr.SASMO: By hammering away at the Rock Of Capitalism or ROC moment by moment! Day in day out! Month after month! Year following bloody year!
R#3: And what’s wrong with the Rock Of Capitalism or ROC?
Mr.SASMO: Let’s move into “our” third story and then I’ll explain!
Less than a week after ‘Reveal’ broke the story that contractor MVM Inc. was detaining immigrant children in an unmarked office building in Phoenix, the company has terminated its lease on the property.
Mr.SASMO: And I’ll read the entire transcript of the Story by ‘Reveal’: ‘The news was announced by Phoenix City Councilwoman Kate Gallego at a press conference outside the MVM office Thursday. On Monday, Gallego had joined other policymakers to call for inspections of the building after Reveal posted cell phone video footage shot by a neighbor showing dozens of children being ushered into the MVM office.
‘After initially denying the children were there more than a few hours, MVM acknowledged Wednesday that it had kept some overnight in violation of its own policies, its lease and its contract with Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The building had only a few bathrooms and no shower or kitchen facilities, even though local police said they were told that at least 90 children were there during a service call to the premises in late May.
‘In a news release today, Gallego said that government inspectors dispatched to check on the office in the last few days were not able to enter the property to conduct an inspection. Neighbor Kristen Brown said she was thrilled that the public became so upset and angry about the situation. But she wondered whether MVM terminating its lease in Phoenix would mean it would start the practice at a different location.
‘“We should be scared for the safety of those kids,” Brown said. “Something like this should never happen in the first place.” MVM, a defense contractor with CIA ties, had initially maintained it didn’t provide shelter or housing to children, calling the office building a “temporary holding space” for children it transports under a lucrative federal contract.
‘Gallego said its admission to the contrary this week indicated it had violated city code. She also publicly thanked Lianna Dunlap, the next door neighbor who took the cell phone video of children entering the MVM office. Gallego turned part of her focus to the federal immigration agency. “It is clear that ICE does not have an adequate plan for taking care of children,” she said in her statement.
‘“It is irresponsible for them to have contractors keep children under their supervision at office buildings not properly retrofitted for the care of children. I am concerned this mistreatment of children will happen elsewhere in our city.”
‘ICE originally told Reveal that MVM’s offices were “not overnight housing facilities, per contract with ICE.” On Wednesday, after MVM had already acknowledged that the Phoenix office housed children overnight, spokeswoman Jennifer Elzea wrote in an email: “as my previous statement made clear the contract with ICE does not allow for children to be in these facilities more than 24 hours. We are looking into whether that happened and under what circumstances.” Elzea has not responded since.’
J&D: Damn!
Mr.SASMO: God damned right! MVM and other Companies, Corporations, Conglomerates or CCCs; all those billionaires taking in cash hand-over-fist could care less about “their” countries and its citizens! They care about profit and nothing more! This’ Capitalism or C! Lesson Learned or LL!
TheRejects: Reject Square! Reject Square! We’re all prisoners of Reject Square!
Mr.SASMO: And prisoners you’ll remain unless you stand-up and fight the Capitalist Machine!
TheRejects: RAM! RAM! RAM! Rage Against the Machine or RAM!
Mr.SASMO: Indeed! Rage Against the Machine or RAM! But get it going while there’s still something left of “our” world in which “we” live and have “our” being!
POW: And with that! We’ll, as usual, have to wait until “our” next Episode or E to Find Out the Facts or FOFs about The Tax Cuts Might Not Stimulate The Economy At All!
R#4: I’m still waiting for that!
TheRejects: Quiet!
R#4: Whatever!
POW: And whatever may come? Please come back for “our” next Episode or E of ‘A Silent Radio Hour’ live yet pre-recorded here on Reject Square in the very Belly of the Beast of the Capitalist Monster Amazon.com or RSBBCMAc!
J&D: Bye now!
