Dr. Bradley J. SommerWhen we talk about how billionaires shouldn’t exist I don’t think people really understand the massive difference in scale between a million and a billion. One million seconds is 12 days. A billion seconds is 31 years. It’s an unfathomable amount of money that no one should have. Even uber-rich mega millionaires - hundreds of millions - really shouldn’t exist. We need to tax the rich; they’re the real free loaders. They’re the drains on the economy. They’re the ones dragging society down.
Jeff Shaffer CBET, ret@drhistorybrad Another way to get a sense of the enormity of it is in minutes. A million minutes ago it was 2022, but a billion minutes ago it was the year 108. Or, as has been posted recently, eating one billionaire would do more to stop worsening climate change than driving an electric car and going vegan!
