And yet he bashes rich people

I don't bash "rich people", I bash rich people who don't pay their fair share of taxes, who gouge consumers and who hoard wealth. I believe in "noblesse oblige". I detest nouveau riche asshats, born on 3rd base trying to convince the rest of us that they hit a triple. And I don't particularly like rich people who whine and moan about their white inconvenience and complain that "taxation is theft".

I like rich people who appreciate the fact that they are fortunate to be where they are and who accept the fact that, hard work aside, they also had a bit of luck (especially boomers, the luckiest generation of them all)

yet you love Cuban who is a nouveau rich asshat

Cuban earns his money, pays his taxes, and supports worthy causes (like supporting people who are trying to crush Trump and MAGA) He's doing the Lord's work. He's also smart enough to know that supporting Republican fascism is, in the end, bad for business.

you have absolutely no idea how much tax he pays
 
TheCountofMonteCristo said:
that is his company capital gain, not him personally, and I am shocked you believe him paying 275 million out of 5.4 billion is sufficient given you are of the view 90% punishing tax is appropriate on all corporate holdings

It would be appropriate but a 90% tax bracket no longer exists. Cuban respects the law, unlike Elon, Jeff, Thiel, and the other oligarchs.
