He may be 715 on that list but he’s the most powerful person in the world.

It's good they weren't stymied along the way by 3% wealth taxes and 70% income taxes.

That's not directed at you SpeedRacer. It's just hard to pass up a chance to knock the likes of AOC, Warren and Sanders when the opportunity presents itself.

I agree. It's so easy to say let's tax the filthy rich. Even if it was done, it would not bring a great deal of revenue into the federal government. All the people you mention have given back.

That game, in the minds of the Left, is evil. Not illegal. Evil.

Why doesn't everyone demand to see Nancy Peloci's tax returns?

But I shake my head every time I see that little punk Zuckerberg on the list. The idea that a nerd in a hoodie running a flaky "social media" site is considered a modern-day titan of industry makes me cringe.
