Brb, Amazon delivered my package.
Seriously. Amazon is amazing.
Um, I'm not sure you're actually reading my post. And frankly, it's a brilliant plan - I only get one good idea per year. Don't squander it! Please! /plead
You asked me how many billionaires, and how much. I said 12 and $1.4 Trillion - I originally just made that up out of thin air. I was being saucy.
You then asked me how I would spend that money - and I can only spend it once. I answer with SHEER BRILLIANCE and you are mocking it.
If you take $1.4 Trillion, you can buy all the Congressional, Senatorial, and Presidential seats for at least 20 years (probably 40). I will do that, then:
Legislate with my new buds. Using the United States' money to fix all the programs I mentioned above (and more).
Hes not a leeching Piece of Shit who just inherited like 99% of all Rich People. He actually did something so im ok with him earning lot of Money even if i dont understand why someone needs this Amount
He hit the Jackpot with his Amazon Idea
He should buy Bitcoin, he would double his money in a month. Bezos is much cooler than Gates (who is not cool at all).
Yes but that's not how anyone would use money to help. The best way to help is to look at a community and see what they need and give them a relief so they can breathe again, a lot of people in modern times are alive, but they are constantly choking because of the pressure they put on themselves and t
For example investing directly into local education is something that's always needed and doesn't require that much capital to change it for the better. You'd be surprised how much good you could do as a billionaire by picking out a school and saying, we'll provide you with new equipment, teaching materials, perhaps a small renovation to make the school building more resource efficient and thus reducing the bills. It doesn't need to cost more than $10 million per school and it would give the community the feeling that they're being appreciated by someone.
With $130 billion you can do a lot, especially if you focus it on areas where the biggest improvement is yet to be made, all put together they can make a huge change for a lot of people without having to spend all of their money too. Look at Bill Gates he spent a fraction of the money the world has spent on fighting Polio and had a much better success by investing in the right projects and research groups.

Obviously but I was referring to actual incomes on a yearly basis, if they could tax your investment before it's paid out, they could theoretically tax our homes because they increased in value too, so they have to be very specific to tax to make sure it's not open for abuse.
And yeah dividend taxes are laughable, in my country it's 0.15%.
I agree with both views.
Now, having just read an article about how his latest donation (Dreamer education) was meant to annoy Trump (and we know they have a feud) I think combining the two ideas above would be the perfect way for him to both make a mark and fuck with Trump and/or the GOP: Dump a shitload of money into education in some red states.
Lol, very true.

Lol, good point. And yeah, it is a little scary, because those numbers would almost guarantee getting decent people elected (I won't be running any Nazi's or pedophiles).
Can you imagine what this country could do with cooperative and focused legislation? The things we could have done . . . .
tell us again why we cant raise taxes on the rich? really make no sense what so ever to not tax them more
He should now be able to purchase more Iguana farms for his favorite food
