    You probably know about it, but just in case, there actually is one.

    It’s fucking pathetic seeing regular people donating to a billionaire.

    People donating $5, $10, $25 but some also $100, $200, $500, but it is barely moving. Perhaps a good lesson showing how much money billionaires actually have and how much is a half billion. Although I suspect it probably flies over the donor’s heads.

      If you earn $1m a year how long will it take to earn $1b? A thousand years.

      If you earn $1m a month, how long? A thousand months, about eighty years.

      If you earn $1b per year, how long to earn enough to get in the top ten billionaires list? 115 years.

      A billion dollars is a truly staggering amount of money.

      And I’m going to bet that list is going to be used as evidence in child support cases to show ability to pay but refusal.

      If Trump was a billionaire he would be able to pay the fine. If he had any kind of assets he could borrow against he could easily create the liquid capital to pay for a shit load. He has no money. He has no assets that aren’t provided under the Trump corporation, which filters all this bullshit away fromnhim personally while also providing his money and clout. The state of New York has firmly stopped the Corp from benefitting the man. He is broke, broken, and still falling.

        Yeah, even the $80 mil or so he paid after Orban visited him. It is clear he used foreign money.

        I can’t believe we forced Carter to sell his peanut farm, and we are allowing this.
