Where Are the Billionaires?

Between unpaid Federal workers and SNAP recipients, tens of millions are facing a food crisis. States and citizens are donating to food banks to help. Which begs the obvious question:

WHERE ARE THE BILLIONAIRES?

The billionaires are funding Trump’s golden obscenity of a ballroom. They are not opening their hoards of wealth to help anyone else. Is there anything else needed to convince people that the billionaires, the Musks, the Zuckerbergs, the Bezos, the Ellisons, the Waltons and the rest are parasites? They suck the wealth out if the rest if us and give nothing back.

This level of inequality can’t be allowed to go on. Either we’ll fix it the easy way, with tax policy, or we’ll fix it the hard way, the way the French did.

But sooner or later, we will fix this.
