Reed Hastings has a net worth of over $5 billion
That's less than .04% of his net worth
People who make way less have donated way more of their overall wealth and they don't make the headlines
It would be nice if he donated more. But I’ll take 2 mil over 0.
This is the equivalent of someone who earns $65k a year donating $26
Not newsworthy or generous
But it is as if 77k people with a salary of 65k donated 26$.
That's just an argument to get rid of billionaires.
...or 2 million people donating $1
His has so much more to lose if boycott hits his company.
