Getting free money won't be the problem. It's when the free money runs out, and there's no jobs.

I had a conversation with a friend when all this covid stuff started and we both agreed there would be riots. No surprise here.

I read a thing the other day pointing out that we group these two together purely because the words sound similar.. They're actually very different in terms of wealth.

Not saying millionaires don't have a moral obligation to do good things with their money but billionaires are another level of greed.
