    He’s still a billionaire, no one becomes a billionaire working 9-5 everyday like a common person. Remember, every cent of profit is an unrealized cent of worker’s wages.

      No one here has disputed that. Why can people not understand nuance?

        I apologize then, it’s just that it’s a common talking point to say someone like Buffett isn’t as bad because of paying taxes or similar. Typically by neo-liberal types as justification that there are “good billionaires.”

          I am saying he’s not as bad. Doesn’t make him good.

            Like with Laika’s owner, he’s nearer the bottom of the list of ones that needs to go.

                Oh I was referencing Laika studios or what it’s called. They made Kubo And The Two Strings. It’s headed by a billionaire who inherited his fortune. He uses it to make art. They’ve made a fair amount of stop motion movies that didn’t return big bucks, but he just cares about the art.
