When 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.
@drhistorybrad I tell myself this, and I hope I'm right. When people talk about the rich being evil, they don't mean that they don't want people to be comfortable or happy. Sure, have a big house if that's what you want, eat nice food, wear nice clothing. Do what makes you happy as long as you're not willfully abusing the planet or other people. Just don't hoard more money than you could ever spend in a lifetime, and give back your fair share.
At least, I hope that's what people are saying.
