MacKenzie Bezos to Donate Half of Her Fortune to Charity: After her divorce with Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, MacKenzie Bezos announced that she will donate at least half of her nearly $37 billion divorce settlement to “charity."
Wow, what a development! And in related news, the White House just issued a statement, vehemently denying that the President is looking into the possibility of legally changing his name from “Trump" to “Charity.”
Now, while this certainly appears to be a nice gesture on her part, it always strikes me as rather bizarre when insanely wealthy people like the Bezos or Walton families make these charitable donations.
Especially, when you consider how many of their employees are forced to apply for food stamps, Medicare and Section 8 housing - just to survive. Is it just me, or does it seem like millions and millions of dollars get donated to charity every year, yet nothing ever seems to change?
That said, on the other side of the coin - I’m sure Trump and his grifter family are reading about this donation and mumbling out loud “what the hell is she thinking? Why doesn’t she just buy more stuff?”
