They believe billionaires "work hard" and that their success has "nothing to do with the poor's poverty" and that they are "why you don't have it worse ackshaully"
"you're not a bad person because you're poor, you're poor because you're a bad person"
a.k.a. the fundamental attribution fallacy

Another one of the ways Religion has ruined mankind
Notice that his house didn't get raided this morning despite known violations before becoming a citizen
Dressing up your cowardice as helplessness is a pretty fuckin' tired look.
You're talking to Americans here. They don't give a shit.
To the last individual.
Completely expected abolish capitalism today.
Imagine if that money went towards helping people, instead of promoting hate, stupidity, and greed.
Billionaires and millionaires shouldn't exist.
While I don't doubt you work hard, I think having a big income disparity between the low and middle classes is still bad. Both of them suffer from inflated prices, it is just that the low incomer folk can't navigate their fiscal hellscape with any safety. Middle class people still have to pay through the nostrils for what they want.
By shortening the gap - say a $20,000 income for the low-income earner and $60,000 for middle class, the prices would be less painful for both of them.
By imposing floors and ceilings on income, with absolute caps on wealth and assets, the price band for goods and services could be narrowed into something more manageable. Both for individuals, and society in general.
many millionaire at least build up that wealth. but its the 10-100+millionaires, and billionaires that are born with a silver spoon. of course theres also people that are close or under the poverty line that needs the most boost.
Buying more favors from the government. Shutting down all investigations into his fraud wasn't enough I guess. Probably wants that sweet AI teacher contract for all US students.
Coming soon to a school near you. Grok Super Intelligent Teacher! With Fabulous lessons plans like "Was the Holocaust even real?"
This man is so absurdly rich that proportionally, if he had 1 million dollars, all of that election money would just be about 300 dollards spent.
Shows how $276M is nothing compared to $1T. And yet $276M is still a fantastical amount of money, to be poured on midterms.
No one should ever have the right to hold so much wealth on their hand.
its not even 1bn, he can easily spend that on all the conservative governments of many country.
he said he would spend this amount.
AIPAC spent $60 million to lose their primary candidate against Abdul El-Sayed. Spending =/= winning
you are engaging in bad faith from a new account. stop sealioning, sockpuppet.
Tell us why you think otherwise, sealion
