Post things your (least) fav billionaire does.
This used to be the Elon Musk sub, but in an attempt to boost engagement, we have engaged a new pathway.
You can post anything related to billionaires here.

Education is paid for by property taxes. So increasing income tax revenue will not help teacher salaries unless the funding mechanism is changed.
Specifically, new taxes on businesses and billionaires need to be specifically earmarked for education, otherwise that money just goes to the pentagons bloated budget. Basically from one pocket to the other. Billionaires don’t want to pay for massive wars, they want to profit from arms sales and the military industrial complex.
