Billionaires should not set climate policy.
Billionaires should not set water policy.
Billionaires should not be setting any policy.
Billionaires should not be platformed to give opinion on crises & injustices they helped create & have financial stakes in monopolizing policies on.
Billionaires should not exist.

Just think if every billionaires money was evenly distributed between every man, woman and child in the US, we'd all be sitting pretty
@Lorian68 @farhanasultana Where would the money come from? In order for the billionaires to get the money so they could distribute it, they would have to sell their assets. To who? Their enormous wealth is mostly imaginary. Numbers on a page. Elon Musk recently "lost" about $200B, but that means nothing. It just means people were less willing to pay a higher price for Tesla shares. Talk of banning billionaires is barking up the wrong tree. We need to fix the avoidance of tax by the super-rich.
@Slartybartfast @farhanasultana Very true! I was kind of fantasizing over the distribution of wealth thing. Totally not realistic!!
