@dgoold@closhof19 Derrick thanks for challenging me to think about this differently. My 14 year old son struggles to understand why someone like JJ can be left off and the challenge to our fans is fair.
America is a constant work in progress. Every generation must take up the unfinished work of the last and carry it further—protecting what’s right, fixing what’s wrong, and making our union a little more perfect. 250 years later, that’s more important than ever.
I’ll take all of these people railing about the evils of the “billionaire class” when they talk about confiscating Taylor Swift’s money (worth almost four times as much as Jeffrey Epstein was) instead of some convenient boogeyman.
Note: I think Swift is great, shouldn’t have her wealth taxed, and Epstein was garbage. But that’s sort of the point. If you think a wealth tax is necessary for a whole class of people, admit you’re going after popular people not just scapegoats.
