Jeff Bezos, the billionaire founder of Amazon, ramped up his criticism of President Joe Biden on May 15, saying that the “misdirection” coming from the White House isn’t helping the country.

Bezos, like many economists, criticized the administration’s attempts to stoke an already overheated economy with further stimulus. He said inflation mostly harms the poor.
