Petition to stop Jeff Bezos from coming back to Earth receives huge support

Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a petition to stop Jeff Bezos from returning to earth from space had received wide support.

The creator of the petition, Ric Geiger, titled it “Do not allow Jeff Bezos to return to Earth”, stating that people of his wealth level shouldn't exist on earth or in space.

The 31-year-old said billionaires should contribute more to alleviate poverty and financial insecurity. Geiger stated that if Bezos wants to visit space, he shouldn't come back.

He opined that while the billionaire remains there, Bezos should look out for his compassion and humanity in any intergalactic asteroid core in outer space.
