He's bought some new laws in California. We are about to reject a billionaire tax, and end voting by mail.

UPDATE: Well, Elmo didn't get everything. We shot down voter ID.

    Hey bud, we lost the billionaire tax but at least we protected our great California voting process, and some lower income people might be able to get a mortgage. And I'm sure you're glad to be wrong about the House and Senate.

    Just to put it in perspective: him spending that much on the midterms is very roughly equivalent, in terms of expenditure::wealth+assets ratio, of me buying a two-day pass to Palisades Tahoe.

    That is absolutely fucking insane, and very obviously indicates a fundamentally broken system.

    Financial obesity is neurotoxic, an existential threat to any society that tolerates it, and needs to cease being celebrated, rewarded, and positioned as an aspirational goal.

    Corporations are the only ‘persons’ which should be subjected to capital punishment, but trillionaires should be forced to transition into billionaires, and billionaires should be euthanised through taxation.

    I would bet that most of this is money lost.
