This isn't really surprising! Lots of people are okay with "you'll pay more taxes so we can invest in the country continuing to have upwards mobility" and not okay with "you'll pay more taxes because you're evil scum who don't deserve the money you made!" twitter.com/ezraklein/stat…

I agree, but also the number of times people hear a version of #1 as #2 is striking to me. Billionaires are *incredibly* thin-skinned, and the compliment sandwich needs an amazing amount of bread to work.

The role of gratitude in the philanthropic exchange, especially as it relates to mega-philanthropy, this s a really fraught question. Was in Rockefeller’s day too. I’m doing some writing abt this...

No one deserves a billion dollars. It’s not because billionaires are evil, but they do need to understand that they only have so much because the system is fundamentally broken.

Do you attribute this to real differences in downstream policy implementation, though, or just to ego-sensitive verbiage?
