      Comparison. These billionaire compare to average Spaniards are filthy rich.

      These Spaniards are filthy rich compare the most people in African.

      I doubt the action came out of “care”, more out of jealousy.

        So they’re acting like billionaires?

          not sure if the billionaire are jealous or not.

          The protest going around vandalising property to make their point is definitely an action from jealously.

          People have vote with their money to shop at Walmart.

            Billionaires don’t get jealous? I guess I meant greed.

              Some are, some not. Hard to judge.

              Everyone expects others to give what they have away like a river flowing downstream.

                Show me a billionaire that isn’t motivated by greed. Seriously, I’ll wait.

                But honestly, how is it you can know the motivations of a protestor and most other people but not whether a billionaire is greedy?

                  Billionaire who don’t want attention are not going to be parading around.
