    I think many people don’t realize how American this take is. I’ve seen videos of Americans claiming we need billionaires to fund hospitals and schools and thought they were crazy but apparently that’s a common take in the US. It’s just confusing and absurd to any European.

    This implies the billionaires actually work for their money, when in reality they don’t, they exploit the labor of others.
