If you make $100,000 a year (not bad), it will take you 10 million years to earn a trillion dollars.

If you make a million dollars a year (wow!), it'll still take you a million years to earn a trillion dollars.

Tax the rich.

@xvf17 @petergleick @SRDas it's easier to buy governments wholesale with that kind of money.
