    You missed the point of the exercise

    I didn’t answer your question in the way your script anticipated. I’m not your student.

    If your script requires people to not know what they’d do with that much money, and then they do, it’s not a great rebuttal to tell them to stay on-script. That’s some Ray Comfort level rhetoric.

    That said, I support far higher taxation of the wealthy. My criticism isn’t of your goal, but that your method is flawed enough to detract from it.

      If you didn’t get it, this is the reason:

      You, and many others, use a multiplayer of 1.000 ; million, billion, trillion.

      Those enormous steps exceeds human comprehension.

      So use 2 instead.

      Have a nice day mr grumpy!
