Yes I'm sure that's what AOC meant too but it's not much of an explanation. Who are you to decide what people deserve or earn? And if you're going to decide that perhaps you'd like to provide a better justification, one that doesn't just boil down to "a billion is really really a lot of money".
> one that doesn't just boil down to "a billion is really really a lot of money".
Why? That's the point. It's too much damn money for one person to realistically earn. We all know how long a day is and how fast a human being can think, move, how much suffering they can tolerate, etc. It is an intuitive truth.
There is no conceivable formulation of physical and mental actions a human could perform, regardless of outcome, that could possibly justify that level of wealth relative to the average levels of compensation for other workers in society.
Okay then what's the maximum, and how did you arrive at that number? Feel free to provide a range
you're right to point out AOC is not the arbiter of truth and justice, and has no right to point out that stealing is bad
