    Welp that sucked.

    69 deaths in 2024 (323 school shootings in 1 year. More school shootings than school days. What are you doing there?)*

    And

    400+ billionaires the poorest is 3.3B

    So 2024 had 1 Billionare death, at this rate, we need 399 more years…

      If I’m reading the hypothetical right, it’s saying what if in a year, the numbers were reversed… 323 $hootings with 69 deaths, versus 1 school shooting with 1 death.

      Would gun laws change, would tax laws change? Etc etc. Would minimum wage change?

      Purely hypothetical of course
