This is why we must take their money. Under capitalism with free expression protections necessary for democracy, their wealth translates into too much influence over public understanding and civic life. $10m/year, $100m in assets maximum. #LiberalValues

@wjmaggos "Their money". How much of that money should by all rights go to their employees who produce the value that made men like him rich?

@terryenglish

To be considered but we have markets. We should try to create less desperate workers and more competition to make that happen. Where they'd have to take the hit instead of passing it on as higher prices.

As far as moral justification, I'll accept they worked hard. But not more than the local small business owner or doctor/lawyer. The additional income was right place, right time. Redistribute the luck.
