No Billionaires
- blackflame7000 8y agoThe dream of someday being wealthy is what makes most people get up in the morning. No human wants to be equal we just want to be treated fairly and uniformily. I don't need nor want bumber lanes on my road of life. I embrace the challemge of comoeting. Having a billion dollars doesn't give you amazing ideas. Everyone can do that for free
- sharemywin 8y agoIt's hard for me to believe you wouldn't be motivated by 999 million versus 1 B or 10 B. And at a certain point their not just "playing by the rules" they're at best influencing then and at worst dictating them. And you can argue maybe the government should have less regulations because then their are less regulations to corrupt, but that just kicks the can down the road.
