Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg said he ‘understands’ where Bernie Sanders is coming from, when the presidential candidate says billionaires shouldn’t exist.
I mean, hate on him if you want, but this isn’t really hypocritical. He doesn’t take a salary, his entire fortune is from Meta stock he owns, and he has a sort of Bill Gates thing going on where he plans to donate the majority of his Meta stock wealth through his own foundation. From what I’ve heard they’ve funded some serious medical advancements and have plans to bring more AI to the space.
I don’t think billionaires should exist either, but it’s not like he can just give it all away without losing control of his company.
