- They also probably lost that much leading up to it, but it’s not liquid anyway, and it’s people with good money sense all over the world making money_niko
- Don't be an apologist for billionaires, niko. This isn't 'people with good money sense' it's people who made more on Jan 2nd than you will your entire life.i_monk
- Resistance is futile. Trump wins 2nd termdrgs
- "it’s people with good money sense all over the world making money"
lol, I thought this place was elevated.i_was - waiting for the trickle.fadein11
- Bernie came 1st place here: https://freebeacon.c…BustySaintClaire
- My point is that anybody with an investment account could make money during this time, Amazon, Netflix, zoom, etc, even the smallest investors_niko
- So why wouldn’t billionaires do the same? And now again billionaires will probably make tons of money on discount stocks as they come back to normal_niko
- As should the rest of us. It’s not rocket science. It is what it is, what do you suggest they or we do? Sit back and let Chinese investors make money instead?_niko
- I don’t think sanders is talking about government handouts here is he? He’s not suggesting they made that money from bailouts and the poor got screwed?_niko
- Also I don’t disagree with the sentiment, there should definitely be some kind of parity, close loopholes, raise taxes let everyone benefit_niko
- there are 520 billionaires in the US with a combined net worth of 2.4 trillion, so they increased their wealth by 10% if my shitty math is right?_niko
- there are also 18.6 million! millionaires in the US so if they also increased their wealth by 10% it's a way larger number than what the billionaires made,_niko
- Sanders being one of them._niko
- wow ! lol, anyone read ?i_was
- Are you referring to what I wrote? Did you read? Care to retort? And what specifically do you think isn’t accurate?_niko
- Like I said it’s shitty that there isn’t a better system in place so the wealth could be distributed better, even ubi, but people making money isn’t wrong._niko
- Don't be thick.i_monk
- you're the thick one if you don't get my point. or maybe i'm not articulating it well.
so what's your fucking point?_niko - "it’s people with good money sense all over the world making money" meaning not just billionaires, and not just Americans, everyone, me, you, whoever._niko
- Yea fuck billionaires just give me Bernie media skim on donationsdeathboy
- You're completely missing the point by reframing this as 'smart people making money' when it's about the absurdly disproportionate amount of moneyi_monk
- in the hands of a superminority, and growing while millions are out of work.i_monk
