Gary is part of the super-rich. He believes wealthy Australians should be paying more tax - Leminal Space

To be fair, he is not part of the super rich, he is barely rich.
His net worth is 3.6 billion(at least from a quick search)… what on dear earth is your definition of rich?
I can see two sites claiming that amount, but I couldn’t find any evidence on them. I wouldn’t be surprised if they were machine-generated - it doesn’t seem to match up with what we know about Gary from interviews.
Yeah, that is fair… billionaire status seems a bit carried away as thats difficult to earn outside of the public eye… unless he got involved in managing a hedge fund? I don’t know enough about him.
In an interview he said he earned less than 2 million.
In one year as a bonus was it not ?
I remember as total earning

gimps like gary and hasan are an embarrassment to the progressive movement

economist and multi-millionaire gary and political analyst and citizen journalist hasan are entertainers and grifters with nothing of value to offer the world except their performative socialism for the own self interest

I don’t agree at all. He is making one very simple, very straightforward point. The game is rigged and without action is going to get worse and worse for most people and the only solution is taxes. It’s not an original point, it’s not anything new, but he does well to represent it. Probably because he is focused on this one thing.
Yes! We should care about his opinion because he is rich!
gates and buffet have said this and they both held the richest man slot at one point. So has sorros and bloomberg (at one time and not that long ago), and even one of the disney heirs.

literally part of The Greens policy platform. At the polling booth last federal election, this lady handing out how to bote cards, “Tax billionaires, dental into medicare”. and a few skillwags proudly showing their ignorance but saying loudly they’d never vote green, laughing through their rotten teeth because they cant afford dental care.

did he get rich from flavoured milk?
This picture makes them look like the worst 90s rap group.
