America’s wealthiest people are also some of the world’s biggest polluters – not only because of their massive homes and private jets, but because of the fossil fuels generated by the companies they invest their money in.

    He did not say “once”. I think they’re suggesting a systematic approach. I periodic Purge if you will. Like some shitty movie.

      The moment they go above a certain amount and still act shitty, they are food.

      I wouldn’t care about rich people if they just paid their workers, paid their taxes, looked at reducing the pollution of their companies, didn’t lobby against the public interests, and just were all around swell people.

      The problem is that they aren’t, none of them are.

      Either they become like that from being rich, or only awful people are moralless enough to become rich. But there isn’t a single good rich person.
