Trillionaire... TRILLIONAIRE! Over speculative stocks. It's so silly. It's INSANE. And I wouldn't care but that speculative valuation of his company gives him REAL buying power that hurts the economy

Your description of what a trillion is makes me understand one thing. Anyone owning that much money breaks the financial system for everyone.

When you make too much money you develop a mental illness. You simply go insane when no one questions you. It is too much power for a human.

Gary, can hear how tough things are from your voice at the end - you're such an important driving force in this fight. Solidarity to you, and keep your chin up - you're affecting positive change more than you know 💙
