    I’m all for taxing the rich but the rest of this is just pure stupidity.

    Like why did you cap how much he can give away at one time lol

      Try to sell all your stocks at once if you own a big chunk of all available shares. The stock price would fall faster than you were able to sell your shares.

      I didn’t cap anything. There are realistic limits to what you can give to charity. Give a charity that normally gets a few millions a billion and they won’t be able to spend it in any normal way. Breeds corruption, etc.

      Charity shouldn’t even exist, as it is always this patch on holes left by governments. Tax the rich until they are “normal rich” and then use that money for projects that normally would require charity

      Also, his wife actually had the exact same situation I just described. She spent millions over millions and once done she had more wealth than she started with

          No.

          If only governments would tax the rich properly they’d have enough money to put good social programs in place. We wouldn’t need charity.
