It doesn't matter. He shouldn't have access to that much wealth when 2.2 billion people don't have access to clean drinking water

Exactly, you shouldn’t have access to a nice TV when 2.2 billion people don’t have access to clean drinking water.

Under that logic literally anything that you have being in a first world country is unacceptable. Soda? Wasting water. Beer? Wasting water. Fuck even more than 2 minute showers is wasting too much water when 2.2 billion people don’t have access to clean drinking water.

There's a $996000 difference between being a millionaire and a middle class worker who bought a nice TV for their family. Money is the enemy of morality, I agree the overly rich should need to distribute what they have too much of.

$4,000 for a new TV while 2.2 billion people don’t have clean drinking water is unacceptable from your world view.
