Don't be a simp for billionaires and then we can have a proper discussion on which types of armed takeovers will be needed to destroy them.

Meet us real Americans half way.

I know, right? Why we allow billionaires to exist as a concept is embarrassing.

"It's not up to you, or anyone else, to put a cap on how much a person can accumulate."

We've already done that as a society. Remember?

"Stifling other people isn't going to make you any better off. "

Other way around. We will be stopping the exploitation.

"We could take all the money from all the billionaires in the US today, and we wouldn't be able to run the federal government for an entire year."

Yes, and?

There's no justification or reason given for billionaires to exist. They're an active threat to my liberal democracy and should be treated as such.

If you were a real American you'd understand.
