I think that, somewhere north of $1 ~ $5 million is life-changing on its own. There’s no need for someone to have tens of millions or hundreds of millions. Tens of millions is like, changing multiple lives in a family with how much that can stretch.

Whenever someone has billions to their name, it is boggling to think about. That it becomes just ‘fuck you’ money at that point because more often than not, not a lot of billionaires out there being charitable. When they know they’re set for a few lifetimes just by a single billion alone.

No single person should ever have that amount of gross wealth.

    You don’t need to prevent rich people to remove money from elections. There are laws that other countries have passed that effectively nuter their influence on that.

        The people control the government, even in America, if idiots don’t wanna vote or can’t pay attention long enough to understand reality then they have exactly the laws they deserve.

        Glad I don’t live in such a shithole.
