    It still blows my mind that 1/6 people on Lemmy took the time to downvote “billionaires bad”! Wtf are these people? Fucking rooting for the mega out of touch oligarchs? Lick the boot you fucks!

    Well damn.

    Being the same age as her, I feel kinda bummed out. If only I’d have been born with the good looks and capability to sing I could be among the worlds top 10 CO² producers.

    Oh well.

    criticism aside, it’s still impressive

      Almost as impressive as her private jet addiction (though good to see that she cut the flying down from worst in the western world to just regular rich sociopath this year).

      Agreed! Modern dragons on mountains of impossibly spendable gold!

      Wouldn’t it be cool if Tay flips the script and really become a “good” rich person! I would love to see that shift and that influence spread. Alas, likey just dreaming but shit, would be cool.

      its easy if you tax.

      income > 1ml should be 95% tax rate or higher. period.

      tax every stock trade. remove religious exemption.

      there are ways, but the people in charge are reaping the most benefits from the broken system
