jeff bezos is worth $250 billion. if they took all of his money, never mind just taxing him, $250 billion is nothing. we are in a deficit of trillions of dollars. there are 12 zeros after the number one trillion. they are talking tax this guy whose net worth is only $250 billion. taxing them is nothing. if they tax them 7% or 10%, people need to stop talking about taxing billionaires when their main job -- the other thing, as far as cutting spending -- trump spending more money than invited, there is another mathematical problem. trump was in office for eight years and he had to deal with the virus. biden has only been in office for three years. how can you compare the men as far spending when one has been in office for eight and the other only three? this mathematics is just upsetting me when i hear these people calling in making this big comparison. host: maybe this makes it more clear. we are talking about $1.6 trillion to fund the rest of fiscal 2024. that is $900 billion for military and close to $800 billion for

so this is the mark zuckerberg and the jeff bezos of the world.ve to think about what it means for, our political future. if you're going toave a small group of extremely wealthy tech pros and oligarchs who are, you know, figuring out how we're going to solve climate, figuring out how we're going to regulate artificial public health, public education, the line we have to ask if the world we want to live in or do we want to address the bill gates problem right now. and the last thing i'll say is that if in this book i'm really pushing back on political failings them in bill gates and the gates foundation, they always talk their optimism. they even trademark this, i think, impatient, optimist so i am also an impatient optimist. i believe another world is possible a world without billionaires. questions questions. right now of course. yeah. okay, perfect. thank you so much once again for writing the book. did you have stop it? i'm interested in the book because i working global health. but i've been following your writing for a couple of years now an

thinking ofjeff bezos, peter thiel, elon musk — they all seem somewhat obsessed with this area of scientific human life. they have the money to do it, but it raises questions about whether the work they do will be open to others or will be reserved for themselves. well, it's such an important question. i mean, if they're donating large sums of money that drive forward basic research for the benefit of all, then that should certainly be welcome. but one of the real concerns about the consequences of life—extension technology is that it will be the privilege of a rich elite, and that, i think, would have disastrous consequences. a philosopher, who i believe you know, certainly i'm sure you know his work, john davis, he wrote a book called the new methuselahs. he said, "imagine a world in which the wealthy few live "on in endless youth, an elite gerontocracy of near mortals." he said, "it would be a world where they behave like ranchers "watching a herd of cattle," that is the likes of you and me, "whose members change with the years, "while they remain in control." that's dystopian. that is tr

jeff bezos, larry ellison, mark zuckerberg, mark zuckerberg rounding out the top five. but you say they're actually even wealthier than that now. in fact, a lot wealthier since the pandemic. right >> yeah. we looked at what's happened to their fortunes since 2020, and they've actually more than doubled. and overall, billionaires are $3.3 trillion richer now than they were in 2020, with their wealth growing at three times the rate of inflation, showing they're really the big winners of a global economy that's built to redistribute wealth upward. which is why at this rate, we're going to see our first trillionaire within a decade, i see okay, but let me ask you this, because if it's all being lifted, all of us, everyone in every socioeconomic group, then you might look at it and go, that's just more wealth being created. >> or perhaps it's inflation and it's a good thing and not a problem, but what is happening in the middle or on the bottom end? yeah yeah. >> unfortunately, you know what we see is that we face a real inequality crisis. so while billionaire fortunes have
