    • From Jason O. Gilbertallthethings
    • lines at every SB seems to suggest people like their fancy coffees. He actually earned his fortune, gave back to his employees, veterans and refugees.formed
    • Yup. I'd say he earned it. What does his success have to do with public schools?aslip
    • I have no idea. This image makes no sense on any level.formed
    • We all "earn it." The question is whether, morally, people should be amassing more money than they can spend in 300 lifetimes, while teachers and othersallthethings
    • live paycheck to paycheck.allthethings
    • How is that relevant to Schultz? He at least built a business and gives back. If you want to look at abuse of wealth, we've got the orange cheeto.formed
    • and no, not everyone "earns it", some inherit it (again, orange cheeto).formed

    • I guess I don't understand the attack on visionaries. Big thinkers have big follow through. Who's to say he couldn't create a plan to improve public school pay?aslip
    • @aslip it's the idea as to whether a moral society would have multi-billionaires at all. that a tax should be so heavy to prevent wealth like his.colin_s
    • he has not earned for his labor in ages, most of his revenue comes from those working for far, far less - he can still be wealthy in a just worldcolin_s
    • I'd agree that he's stupid rich. Such is capitalism. I'm in favor of more taxes for bajillionaires. Shitting all over him for being rich and running for POTUSaslip
    • seems childish. He may not be the best choice, but I'd much rather go center than far left or far right.aslip
    • I'm on the left but I can see the argument for someone who has managed a big enterprise, and bringing that experience to government.yuekit
    • What's disappointing is that Schulz hasn't articulated a single idea about how to change things. Just bland rhetoric about how both sides are extreme.yuekit
    • And how we can't afford health care or to raise taxes on people like him. If people wanted more "centrism" and were happy with the status quo, they wouldn'tyuekit
    • be electing populists all over the world.yuekit
    • Unfortunately this guy will be eaten up like SB stock price plummet...robotron3k
    • Is English your 2nd language Robo? Not being an asshole, genuinely interested and probably wouldn't find you so irritating if so.fadein11

    • I like Schultz, but so far he's not helping his chances. He better show some vision soon or he'll be lost in the sea of others.formed
