He mused about how this nurse from Queens might better use that money.
And if you think a nurse from Queens is what he was really talking about may I interest you in some of #PicaTheCat 's exciting crypto currency investment opportunities.
Mr. Bezos we don't think you, yes you personally are paying your fare share of taxes. That's the issue bub.
@futurebird I hope enough people wake up to the fact that he's engaging in such obvious misdirection meaning he's aware that he's breaking the law (yes it's all technically legal and it's considered avoidance, not evasion - it shouldn't be). He has consciousness of guilt, and he's arrogant enough to think he can hide it.
The fact that he even feels compelled to try to hide it in public instead of skipping the interview, tells me he fears the guillotine. Things are getting better.

@futurebird I dunno. I hear what you’re saying, but… that face!
Yeah. I always end up investing in her schemes every time too. At least she tried to help me garden this morning.
Pica is a serial scammer, cybercriminal, and mastermind.
But she's MY serial scammer, cybercriminal, and mastermind.

Her feet crack me up all the time for some reason. She's just so prim and serious and yet so goofy.

@futurebird The serial scamming and cybercrime just shows she knows how to get things done. Which I’m sure will work out great for the voters.

I don’t even think about his fair share of taxes, I think he has too much damn money
The only reason to attack him is that amount of wealth should not exist

The other angle to this is that Republicans believe people who don’t pay taxes should not vote

@david_chisnall @datarama @futurebird Rory Stewart once mentioned on The Rest Is Politics, that he had asked some billionaires about the hoarding vs philanthropy. Ostensibly, they tend to develop a fear of gradually losing their power and political traction as their pot of money diminishes and they descend the league table of the globally wealthy. Whatever the truth of that, it certainly must be an odd position to be in psychologically.
I tend to think that the measure of wealth is how infrequently you have to think about money. Billionaires seem to do pretty badly in that scale. I suspect that the peak is somewhere in the $5-50M range: enough that it's self sustaining and the gains cover even pretty extravagant things you might want to buy for an individual to use / consume, not enough that you are significantly skewing the shape of society around you.

Both you and him are correct. -

@david_chisnall @kbm0 @futurebird This is pretty much why I consider myself rich, even though by most measures I'm not. I barely ever have to think about money. Back when I was poor (yes, actually below the relative poverty line of my country) I thought about money *all the time*.
I live in a small (but very nice) apartment, I use public transit and don't own a car, I have no children, I don't drink and I don't smoke, when I travel for vacation I usually go to a neighbouring country rather than an exotic location. So, I don't actually need a lot of money to be rich.

@david_chisnall @kbm0 @futurebird (the reason I'm not *really* rich, by the same measure, is that it wouldn't take a lot to put me back in a situation where I'd have to think about money all the time.
I'm a lot closer to the homeless guy selling newspapers down the street than I am to any billionaire - or high-millionaire.)

Same honestly. Only camera equipment and the occasional book makes me feel a little poor.
I deserve the three volume set "Miniture Orchids" why is it three hundred dollars?
(yes yes library is nice, but some books I like to have so I can write in them and fill them with sticky notes.)
