How much can amazon afford to give every single person on earth?
bynightflameauto ( 6607976 ) writes:
Based on current calculations, if we bled Amazon of its total *net* worth, that would give every current living human just under $300. That's almost enough for a happy meal and a full tank of gas!

That calculation is for the entire world population of 8 billion.
If we used just the US population (which is the target of the class action) it would be about 20 times higher.
Win-win!

Unless you own stock in the company, either directly or through an index fund. I'm pretty sure all the people with an ownership interest in AMZN wouldn't think it a win-win. And I'm not sure where the number came from either - stockholders equity / 8 billion would be around $42 TTM.

Just looked up Amazon market cap = $2.44 Trillion
2.44 trillion / 342 million
$7134.5
Who wouldn't want an extra $7134 ?
Also, they would be free of the "Amazon tax".
