Howard Schultz doesn’t like the “moniker” of billionaire because he “earned” all of his wealth.

Rubbish. Schultz built his fortune on the backs of workers, many of whom can barely afford to make ends meet.

The myth of the self-made billionaire is a cruel hoax.

I'd argue that's the term "oligarch" is more accurate.

@dhavide @rbreich

It always puzzles me that Russia has oligarchs but the US has billionaires. Like pretending they're NOT running the govt makes it sound better... 😒🙄
