Billionaires are isolated from policies that effect businesses and hence they sometimes have extreme views from the guilt they feel from their own fortune.
Who confided this to you, Donald The Trump? I would guess the average billionaire would be quite able to lobby to form that policy (see GOP, 2000-2008)

Yes, I absolutely grant the average billionaire would be, I suspect, rather isolated from the financial storms average folks have to weather daily (in BERK- B shares I trust)

Unlike some I refuse to believe the most liberal member of Congress is suddenly going to move to the center especially with majorities in the House and Senate. Because he IS smart I may be correct in guessing that he has outsmarted many that believe the hype. "Redistribute the wealth" is not a term that he has backdown from or is afraid to say. That one line in itself should say it all about where we are headed
I do not like that line either. However, there is no money for campaign promises. There is financial chaos and government debt. Promises are one thing, reality another. I'll wait and see where we end up.
