      I mean Cuban has some redeeming qualities but he is still a gold hording billionaire. Linda Khan is a threat to his and all his billionaire buddies’ status to being a billionaire, so it’s not really too surprising he wants her gone.

      And this is what frustrates me about billionaires, this pathological fear that they have about losing anything, especially money. These people are addicts to money and power. And when someone or some institution gets in the way of them getting their next money fix they will do whatever they can to tear them down. And there are many many people in this world that enable this addiction they have, they praise it and encourage them to do more. People like Khan are seen as ‘narcs’ out to ruin their fun. Fuck that.

      I would love to see a nationwide intervention and help these poor souls break this dangerous and deadly addiction they have.

        I had really hoped that he would be one of the ones who could rationalize living the rest of his life as a simple millionaire or something.

        You are right about the knee-jerk reaction to avoiding losing even a bit of wealth.
