Bill Gates is one of a small group of people I feel should be taking private jets. He and his wife are the world's biggest philanthropists and they do much more good for the world quickly meeting the necessary people to effect change than wasting hours at the airport.
For the vast majority of other ultra rich, they should be suffering through awful airports and airlines like everyone else. Partly just so there's a chance their collective frustration of flying actually results in somehow working to improve the broken industry.
- hotpotamus 4y agoBill Gates has also built a carbon capture plant. I believe it's still mostly prototype tech, but I have to assume it can capture enough to offset his private plane flight. I feel like if we taxed everyone who buys a private jet 1 carbon capture plant, that would be a good tradeoff.
