Because this is who the American people voted for.

Probably to scare people or to feel cool.

They want to silence him, but I don't think they will be able to.

Pirating Nintendo games is ethical.

Trumps America is really incredible. People voted for this.

Whenever you feel stupid like because you made a mistake or something, just remember that people voted for this, and then you don't have to feel so stupid anymore.

Technically they're right, which is why pirating Ubisoft games is ethical.

Edit: Pirating Nintendo games is ethical too, of course.

Sure but his doctors are keeping him alive regardless, clogged arteries no problem they'll clear that right up too. He will outlive people far healthier than him. That's just how these things go.

I'd say there's zero chance, he could probably easily outlive us all somehow.

Good, make them suffer.

Something tells me it wasn't a mistake, it was entirely intentional. USA is a hostile nation under its current leadership.

I guess I just feel like the playing field should be a lot more even at the start.

But the playing field is never going to be equal. There are always going to be some people more disadvantaged than others, so having the same cap for everyone could leave people in unequitable situations.

I think a hard cap of like 2.5 million could be fair, because it at least balances some of the inequality by not having people be outrageously rich to the point where it's unachievable for anyone not born into it. Like, inheriting 250 million or more is far more than anyone could ever obtain in their life normally.

The disabled cousin might not need the windfall if we didn’t let people hoard so much. I’m just not sure how it’s morally acceptable for those who have rich generous relatives to have a life so different from someone who doesn’t, though.

So in that case, all disabled people should live in poverty because it's not fair if only some do? If we can't help everybody then nobody should be helped? I'm not sure that's a great goal to achieve.

Honestly, I agree with that. I think a 2.5 million cap is reasonable for pretty much everybody. Nobody ever needs more than that, and nobody could ever reasonably obtain more than that in their life normally.
