Bloomberg donated the most, but spent very little. He's reportedly worth $100+ billion. He spent 13 million.
That's like saying be spent 13 cents when his net worth was $1 million.
That's like 1 drop in 3 buckets.
It's loose change you find on the floorboard of your car.
Billionaires should not exist.
There's more than one way to get rid of billionaires. Taxing them is the best remedy they could hope for.
So uhhh, unless I'm doing my conversions wrong, it's more like a $133 donation while being worth a million.
And yet, it's still a mere 0.0133% of his worth. Not 1.33%, 0.0133% if it.
