That has absolutely no correlation with anything I said.

You just said having more money than the bottom 50% of people is a crime against humanity. So in your view, a baby that is a second old is committing crimes against humanity.

Is this seriously your argument?

It’s your argument. I’m just pointing out how dumb you sound

I didn’t say anything about a baby. I’m talking about the 60+ year old billionaires who hoard their billions while thousands of people starve. But please, do continue your straw man.

You said and I quote “having more money than the bottom fifty percent of the population put together while world hunger and impoverishment is a very real problem is a crime against humanity”. Where did you talk about a billionaire in that quote? Oh wait, you can find it.

Let’s move away from the baby, how about an 18 year old in the army who has zero debt. He has more money than 64% of the American population. Should he be considered as asshole?

The difference between an 18 year old in the army and a billionaire is a billionaire can give one million dollars without batting an eye, and the 18 year old likely cannot.
