I'm not trying to defend that shitbag bezos, but there are a few issues with your analogy. It's actually a total of $3.3M in lobbying which would be more analogous to advertising costs for a realtor. In addition, you're comparing revenue to profit, those are two separate things.

It's not $3.3m because that was money spent in another year for other things. Last year they spent $1.3m and got $3.4b. If a loan originator closes on a loan, they get 3%. Congressmen are voting to give Bezos billions for a few a million *collectively,* which means they each got a few grand each, practically pennies.
