I'm observing a trend with Trump cultists & conspiracy theorists. They go on long rants that make various claims, and then say something like, "These facts are easily verifiable with a little research" or "The evidence is there for anyone who bothers to look." They never cite.
I had a guy do this to me recently, so, for kicks and giggles, I did a Google search. I could not find support for his claim like he said I could. So I asked him to cite some sources I could review.
He refused.

Billionaires giving away half their money doesn't = affordable health insurance.
It doesn't = affordable housing.
It doesn't = higher wages.
It doesn't = lower prescription drug costs.
What it does: allows one person to sponsor their pet cause while everyone else suffers.
Generosity should always be encouraged and celebrated, but it's not a social safety net...not in a world of 7.5 billion people.
