      Billionaires aren’t poor, they’re rich.

      They are also better than us so that’s why we shouldn’t tax them and why we should give them lots of free stuff to encourage them to share with us.

      But if we had their intelligence and work ethic we could be billionaires too.

        Just gotta pull yourself up by your bootstraps. Once you’re high enough that gravity turns into calculus, congrats - you’re a billionaire. If you’re barely in the orbit it might decay, but get up in there and you can become a private tax on anything humanity does in this era

        Billionaires aren’t poor, they’re rich.

        Rich in material wealth, poor in terms of people actually liking or caring about them rather than their money.
