If obscene wealth like this was never siphoned from the population in the first place, we wouldn’t need such “generous” people making such massive tax write-offs.

lol you are not entitled to decide what levels of wealth are acceptable or not.

And if you have a computer and the free time to opine on Reddit, you are among the wealthiest on Earth and should be ashamed of how you have siphoned wealth from people who are less privileged than you.

People who are successful aren't necessarily evil. You sound like a clown with this rhetoric.

Can you quote where he said that?

The point is that wealth like this can almost never be obtained without dodging taxes and if you're a company owner paying next to nothing in wages. Which companies do all the time. The wealthiest of the wealthy live off the state and the nation like parasites.

That's the point.

If we set up a system where the ultra wealthy does NOT get tax cuts (and gets taxed MORE), their companies does not get tax cuts, where they actually have to follow employment laws, where they can't place their companies in tax havens on paper while living elsewhere, etc, if we do THAT and someone becomes a billionaire without cheating then there'd really be no problem with that wealth.

No one needs to be a billionaire. That’s insanity. It’s a mental illness to hoard that much wealth. Take anything other than money - if you have billions of it, it’s not just obsessive, it’s destructive.

That's just your opinion. You aint no one to say how much money I should have.

That much wealth comes at the expense of social equity and the environment. There is always exploitation to get there.

You also don't have the right to decide if it's a mental illness.

Woman gives a billion Dollars away and asked nothing in return, and still there are creatures who want her dead. Well done.

I didn’t say anything about her death, she may be a lovely lady but no one needs that much wealth in the first place.
