    If people want me to pay more billions, then let’s have that debate.

    Nonsense. He’s not open to debating this. Not at all, not fairly. If it were one person, one vote, they’d all lose, and they know it.

      more billions

      Yeah, citation needed there, j dawg. I don’t believe for a second that space cowboy is paying anything close to his fair share already. I’d be floored if he has ever paid $1B in taxes.

        These guys like to include things like payroll taxes, and SS payments, etc. “I pay millions in taxes, just not out of my pocket.”

        Yeah, Skippy, we want what’s in your pocket, too, because whatever you paid in payroll taxes, it should have been triple. That’s money that should have gone to your workers, so they’ll get it in the form of government services like health care and free college instead.
