Not when you're a billionaire buckerino. Taylor swift might be a slightly more ethical billionaire than the rest, but the fact that she is a billionaire at all is a symptom of the underlying systemic problem - the ideal number of billionaires in our world in its current state, is ZERO. Nada. Null.
You can sit there and sigh all you want, but a billionaire who's even slightly morally upright won't be a billionaire for long.
The only billionaire I'll ever consider as even slightly ethical, or as someone to look up to, is Chuck Feeney, god rest his soul.
It must be exhausting being like you.
It must be exhausting making excuses for people hoarding unfathomable amounts of wealth, or are you paid to do that?
Won't someone think of the billionaires?!
