As a kid, I read history stories of people who survived famines, or died from yellow fever, or celebrated being able to eat something with sugar at Christmas. I felt so grateful for the prosperity I had - a warm bed at night, sweets, medicine. I'd learned about basic economics -

Great to see everyone marching in support of California billionaires and against the wealth tax today! #BillionairesBuildProsperity
