As a general rule it’s pretty safe to assume that a billionaire is a greedy, selfish asshole. Otherwise they wouldn’t have got there. I really wish we would stop praising billionaires and looking at them for wisdom.
- tomcam 4y agoI accept all these complaints about Cuban. Twitter closed my account for criticizing his China ties. But what have you and I done even close to as significant as bringing down the price of subscription drugs?
- spaetzleesser 4y agoI have done nothing to bring down price of subscription drugs. But unlike billionaires I have also not lobbied for socially harmful things like shareholder value over everything else, tax cuts for wealthy people, privatized for maximum profit health care, abandonment of pensions, different tax treatment for income from investment vs labor and many other things.
- tomcam 4y agoDo you think bringing up these familiar critiques is even close to as significant as bringing down the price of subscription drugs? I'd trade Cuban's accomplishments on that alone for any amount of your whinging.
