I mean for me anything after the 500k mark is just going to be givin away to people or communities in need. I can live off of 500k and a job for the rest of my life.

Personally I feel like I could do more good with super PACs by supporting politicians who would help those people and communities by forcing my fellow billionaires to also contribute. I don’t like the system I find myself in, but I don’t want to throw myself into the “Yet you participate in society. Curious!” hole.

Well, lots of people could do that, but are they?

Power corrupts and all that...

I get it but I don't trust the government to ever get better so I would rather give directly to the people or directly pay their bills so they don't get hit with the taxes from the money givin to them.
