So tired of the "they earned their money and provide a valuable service" bullshit.

And the idea that making corporations pay taxes is punishment for being successful.

They're sociopaths who feed off the labor of others

“Businesses exist to money people” after you tell them how a business exploited people or put their employees and/or customers in danger.

This goes for all of them, even that one you think is kinda a good person. They're not. If they were, they wouldn't be billionaires. Gates. Bezos. Musk. Murdoch. Swift. Soros. There are so many more, all faces of evil.

Probably the only good billionaires are the ones who would donate most of their wealth and not tell to brag about it. The founder of Duty Free shopping, Chuck Feeney, is one of the good ones who donated 99% of his wealth and was left with $2 million by the time he died. He started to secretly donate most of his wealth at the peak of his career. His secret philanthropy was only found out after he had to disclose his finances during a lawsuit.

The good billionaires, however few or if there are many, would donate most of their wealth and not brag about it; or not try to announce they would do so but drag their feet, unlike Bill Gates and Warren Buffet.

He also fought against open sourcing the COVID vaccinations, so fuck em

I noticed that people who are highly opinionated on anything about culture wars seem less vocal on criticising the wealth transfer to the wealthy, and they are not even rich. Kinda says a lot what they value more.

The media tells them what to care about.
