    If a family has two dogs and a cat, some might think that’s a little much but as long as the animals are healthy and happy it’s fine…

    Billionaires are like animal hoarders that go around stealing every dog they see in someone’s backyard and never getting them spayed/neutered or even acknowledging they exist once they have possession.

    Billionaires are hoarders, plain and simple.

    It’s just in a hyper capitalist society, that’s encouraged instead of viewed as a mental illness.

    The great news is even if we tax them, they can still compete for who has the most money.

      Major problem with this analogy is if you don’t have a cat or dog you won’t starve to death. These people are trying to hoard resources that are life supporting. They are hoarders, and should be treated as such. The public as a whole needs to have this view and turn our backs on them, just not give them that power or influence over our lives.

      Also citizens united needs to be repealed. Corporations are not people.
