      I’d rather their wealth just be redistributed, but I get the sentiment.

      I don’t know why people are getting banned for saying this. i think everyone must die some day.

        Yeah I’m not one to defend billionaires, but this place is littered with pretty cruel and inhumane attitudes. Crazy how bold people can be behind a veil of anonymity. All sense of decency and emphathy simply gone.

        I hardly approach that level of hated for the likes of Putin, Cheney, or Kissinger let alone some generalized billionaire strawman.

          I mean, it’s sad she is dead. But billionaires shouldn’t exist. They have been stealing our time and money for so long.

            Yeah I can agree with that. No billionaire should exist especially when we have terrible rates of homelessness, especially child homelessness, let alone myriad other metrics.
