No. Whatever "feats" the owner is pulling, they are never enough to justify them getting 99% of the profits while the workers get the crumbs.
Bezos does not work a billion times harder than his average employee.
Projecting bezos onto all business owners is a bit of a bad faith argument, no?
Consider small businesses. Dry cleaners, home cleaning services, restaurants. Their owners usually work every day, and get paid no salary at all, or at most, a very small salary. Any payment/ retirement they get is when they hopefully, eventually make it big or sell the business.
