You know what I love about Steve Barma the most is, he makes me feel like he's a billionaire.

According to Forbes, a man who is a billionaire worth 51.7 billion dollars, Elizabeth Warren, I've heard, is coming for you. Are you afraid? How are you feeling about this whole thing? Is there a war on the billionaires, or how do you feel about it? I think there's a great discussion to be had about who should pay how much taxes. I personally would be fine with paying more and yet the most... Hold on. Hold on. He hasn't said how much. Yes, I think the most important thing. Frankly is that people just get the numbers. Look at what's going on today. And then you can almost like a sign of quota.

You should pay this much tax, you should pay that, but it's got to be based on what we want to do. What do we want to do with the money? How much? Who can pay? Right. What other expenses? of the people will decide what should happen and I'll be okay with it. Like I am sick and tired of billionaires who run around like, oh, woe is me. Oh, the world is against me.

Oh, it's so hard. Do you know how hard it is to be a... No, if you're a billionaire, you should be running around, pop-pa! I'm a billionaire. I'm a billionaire. I'm a billionaire. You see these these these these these the billionaire the billionaire the billionaire the billionaire the billionaire the billionaire the billionaire the billionaire the billionaire the billionaire the billionaire the billionaire the billionaire the billionaire the billionaire the billionaire the billionaire the billionaire the billionaire the the billionaire. I the billionaire. I the billionaire. I the billionaire. I'm the billionaire. I'm the billionaire. I'm a billion. I'm a billionaire. I'm the the the the the the the world. I's the world. I's the billionaire. I's the billionaire. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I's. I's. I's is is th. I'm the the the the the the th. I'm th. You feel th. You feel th. You feel th. You feel th. You feel th. You th. You the the th. You the the th. You're the the the the th. I'm a billionaire. I'm a billionaire. I'm the the th. I'm a billionaire. You feel that? I'm a billionaire. That's what I've like, because you're a billionaire. You see these billionaires on TV crying, Elizabeth Warren, she wants to come. Yeah, but you're a billionaire right now.

You're a billionaire. Come on. You're a billionaire. Come on. Even if you disagree with the wealth tax, if I was a billionaire, and they go like, hey, so if you disagree with the wealth tax, if I was a billionaire and they go like, hey, so Elizabeth Warren's going to pay, but then you're like, what, so what does that mean? It's like, you're going to be paying 6%? Then I'm like, let me think, I have 70 billion now minus 6% I'm still a billionaire.

And then another 6% my money back. I'm just like enjoy it. I'm not saying you don't have to believe in anything. I'm not saying you don't have, like, but you're a billionaire, man. There's too many people in this world who want to act like their victims when they're not, like crying on all levels. Like you've got power, you've got power, I've got money. Yeah, they say I pay more taxes, I pay more taxes. I'm a billionaire. I'll pay more taxes. You don't even have to say you like it. Just be like, I'll pay the taxes because I'm a billionaire.
