Forgot to go find this again. heh. So glad for your reply :)

Well, any big wealth like she accumulated comes from exploiting the system, one way or the other, although it’s easier to argue that a performer might be exploiting less than someone like Musk.

And also - not that I’m defending her, but a point someone brought up that I think is salient in her case - she probably would’ve broken a billion except for all the charity work she did.

But that said, we gotta tax wealth in a serious way that we’re not. Charity is good, but government raising taxes and providing a safety net for all is better. Her work was good, but I don’t think I benefitted - I don’t have to, but y’know, not everyone did. (not relaly sure offhand what billionaire chairty has benefitted me, but either way, proper taxing of the wealthy should have given me and everyone else social safety nets).

So probably we have very little in the way of disagreement on this topic. hehe

Thank you for the warm wishes - either way, life goes on (until it doesn’t), and I hope you do well with everything as well (I was gonna wish a nice day, but I really like yours better) :)
