Just saw an ad featuring Kamala talking about how she's going to make billionaires pay their "fair share." They conveniently threw in images of Trump and Elon laughing, as if to suggest that all billionaires are Republicans and they're all laughing at us middle class (or poor) people. Which, of course, is nonsense.
Now, I may not have a magic formula for counting which side has more billionaires, but I do know that guys like Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, George Soros, and Bill Gates have all leaned heavily Democratic. Funny enough, despite all the political grandstanding, no Democratic administration has quite managed to make them pay their "fair share," either.
So, to anyone this ad is targeting: think for yourselves. Take a moment and ask, how much have any of those billionaires really done for you? And when you come to the inevitable answer, exactly zero, well, take this ad for what it really is: just another pile of fluff.
