1/ There are 614 U.S. billionaires- 400 richest together have near $3.4 *trillion*. Yet we haven’t heard one multi-billionaire yet say “I’ll throw in $1 billion for a stimulus fund if some of my friends will also give $1 billion to compensate for the greed & mendacity of Congress

2/ Perhaps the “opioid rich” Sackler family could start - given how “sorry” they are and all? Then maybe “no federal taxes” Jeff Bezos would like to say a few words? It’s amazing in America today how easily we neglect the powerless and protect the powerful.

It’s despicable. The idea of “individualism”here plays a big role. The mistake that being American and getting rich for yourself, with no obligation to this society, except protecting yours and others fortunes, is leading us to ruin.

Government is what gives the powerful their power, not voluntary exchange in the market. Big business loves big government, and they will always wield it with more influence than normal people. There’s a reason inequality GREW under both Bush and Obama.

They are as sorry as Nancy Pelosi is about blocking the 2nd stimulus payment for electoral reasons. If #BeijingBiden & his gang of NeoLib #Warmongers get their steal validated (which God prevent) you can all look forward to a worse version of the pre-2016 Perfect Globalist Hell.

Def start with the Sackler family. Time for them to pay up for the pain and suffering they’ve inflicted
