I believe absolutely yes. $50 million is a lot but it’s not a ridiculous, grotesque amount of dynastic wealth. It’s the cusp of ultra wealth. It could be earned through hard work, though unlikely. And with a safety net those who have it could more comfortably give it all away. Anything more than about $100m is disgusting to me. Musk is worth 10,000x the water park. We need to give him the French treatment.
Sweden and Norway have more millionaires per capita than the USA. So I’d imagine having a safety net will increase the number of charity water parks.
Can we have proper social safety nets and still have people with 51m dollars to spend on having fun?
