       @xianc78 Look at how proud they are of themselves. Wow, they really taught a lesson to that menace to society.

       @bonifartius The chart for the US and the chart for the entire world look very different.

       @bonifartius Even the poorest folks here in the West are over the 50% point. Probably higher than that, but I'm not sure how much.

       @jeffowski It's *great* that anti-billionaire sentiments are getting more common, but talk without action is potentially counter-productive. The more we "telegraph" our intentions, the more they will fund the increase in fascism to keep us so busy fighting for survival, that we don't have time to "eat the rich".

       @bonifartius @jeffowski That's a great question! Every person is different, and since only you know what your special skills are, that means I can't tell you.  Keep learning and thinking and growing, and sure an  answer will come to you I'm eventually.

       @bonifartius @jeffowski Ok, I understand where you're coming from, but I have a couple of questions about where you said "removing billionaires by whatever means doesn't magically makes everyone else more rich or happier".  You seem very confident about that. On a scale of 1 to 10, how confident are you about that?

       @bonifartius @jeffowski Ten is very confident. I wish I was that confident. Can you tell me how you arrived at that level of confidence?

       @bonifartius @jeffowski But my original question was about confidence, not principles. Are your principles what give you confidence?

       @bonifartius @jeffowski What are your principles based on?  I'm talking in general, not neccessarily about this specific subject. Do you base your principles on evidence or faith or something else?

       @grammargirl I didn't know it was that bad, but it explains a lot.

       @futurebird I would wager that there is an abundance of Ticks though.

       @futurebird @jannem @helplessduck @nancylwayne Has there been any research done  on whether importing the parasitic flies would have any unintended consequences?

       @futurebird @jannem I've discovered I have a bit of a green thumb, so I've been learning about native and invasive plants. The thing about invasive species, if you don't know about them, you don't see them, but once you know about them, you see them everywhere. I mean, I already knew about, like for example, Argentine ants, but that's my job so I didn't think about it. But now I'm seeing invasive Honeysuckle, Rosa floribunda, and Phragmites everywhere I go.

       @futurebird He's doing what he thinks is best for the country. The other guy only does what is best for himself.
