If you're going to lead, you have to understand that people will make sacrifices for your cause. Your job isn't to avoid the pain, it's to make it count.

This is literally treated as radical, outside-the-bounds of normal political discourse.

Enough to by every unhoused person in America a $1.3 million home.
Enough to cover federal spending on school lunches for 57 years.

I just want everyone to have the experience of living in dignity with access to sufficient food, safe housing, needed medical care, high quality education, and time to engage with what sparks their curiosity and spirit

I think it would be more helpful for many ppl if we do not frame the question as what people should own, but as how much power someone should have in a community, money is in the end purchase power

I don't think people realize how much a trillion dollars is.
Let's say you get paid a million dollars per day. That's a lot, right?
If you spend none of it and pay no taxes, you'll have a trillion dollars in approximately two thousand seven hundred (2700) YEARS.
No one should have that much.
