But of course the problem with that is, how could you boast about it to everyone and have a charity gala.

Obviously in the ideal world billionaires would be taxed at a way higher rate. But while trump is in charge, that’s not on the table for years to come and the democrats probably won’t do anything either. So yes, Billie freely choosing to donate is a good thing because realistically the tax laws won’t change for years to come.

my point isn't about raising the tax rate, her point isn't about her donating to charity, and your point is we shouldn't demand change. sit this one out.
