Are you telling me that if your employer stopped paying you, you would keep spending the same as you do now?
Here is how it works. Let's say Amazon doubles someone's salary, from 30k a year to 60k a year.
And let's say that previously, this person was spending 1k a year on Amazon.
Since the worker now has double the salary, let's say it doubled the amount that they spend at Amazon, from 1k to 2k.
Doing simple math here, you see that Amazon is now spending 30k more, only to get an extra 1k in revenue, for a total decrease of 29k.
Arguing that this person will spend all 30k of this additional money at Amazon is ridiculous.
And even more ridiculous would be arguing that this perpetual motion machine actually creates value, above and beyond 30K.
