Bitch please. My main interest is in making sure billionaires can’t exist. We could literally set the money we collect on fire and it would still achieve that goal. Using some of it for good things is just icing on the mf’ing cake!!

@pmonks It's not about making money. It's about taking money. Destroying the status quo because the status is not quo.

@pmonks well yeah, people who are elected obviously can't be trusted with large piles of money, but unelected billionaires obviously can - we've never seen anything bad from them in the past or present, nor can we imagine anything bad from them in the future.
