A billionaire has accused Sen. Elizabeth Warren of"s***ting on" the American dream with her policy platform, which includes breaking up big banks and tech companies, as well as higher taxes on the wealthiest households and corporations.
"What is wrong with billionaires?" Leon Cooperman, a former Goldman Sachs executive who now runs the investment firm Omega Advisors, told."You can become a billionaire by developing products and services that people will pay for. Among Warren's specific policies is what she calls The Ultra-Millionaire Tax, levied on the 75,000—or 0.1 percent of—households with a net worth of over $50 million. There would be a 2 percent tax on every dollar over $50 million and 3 percent over $1 billion."My question is not why do Bernie [Sanders] and I support a wealth tax,"
If that's not a projection, then what is?
Awww good for her. Shes done something right I'd the billionaires are angry
Her stance is not explained as a counterpoint here although her reasoning is well known and her policies have been extensively explained. By chalking up the reason as being she couldn’t be reached for comment is disingenuous and one side gets the story. The money side.
He can go sit on his solid gold toilet and wipe with his silk white sheets. Not a tear from me.
“American Entitlment” has replaced the “American Dream”.
Billionaires can't afford to laugh that one off.
It's actually a very good sign if such a billionaire explodes like this on her.
The American dream for whom? For a handful of rich people? While thousands of America struggles to pay for housing, food and healthcare? That's not the American dream That's a systemic structure specifically meant to hold Americans down Sh*t away
Bernie and Warren aren’t going to be accepted by swing voters. Don’t blow this Dems!
Hahaha.... they're scare shitlesss
♥️
Now that he would have to pay taxes he will feel his dream is gone. I pay taxes, plenty of them, why not them?
HIS American dream, which means limitless accumulation of money at the expensive of others
He's right. Why doesn't the left see this, or care!
Whose dream? And which Americans?

Yes a very elaborate and expensive American dream for the privileged few like you. We need to spread the love, Wall Street!!
Billionnaire ex-Goldman Sachs executive! Do we suppose the 2008 bailout was also a dream?
sounds like a pretty solid endorsement for Warren to me
Go eff yourself!
If unbridled greed is a dream, then good for her.
The American Dream also includes the middle class and the poor. Those who are in that category have only been able to watch their income stagnate for years. Their ability to invest, save, and have any money considered throw away is now almost nonexistent. Billionaires profit.
$5000daily X 400years is billion dollars! Basically it's nearly impossible to EARN that type of money without lying, cheating (underpaying/overcharging), or stealing.
Still gotta pay your fair share on that American Dream homey.
A dream realized by a tiny number of oligarchs who pay less by percentage of their income than middle class Americans.
Obviously his.
Exploiting the masses to make yourself so wealthy you’ll never be able to spend it all, that’s not my American dream.
Watch the Faux hate these Elites have for Warren... They love her over Sanders.. that's who they fear.
Maybe, but exploitive capitalism drives this shit. There has ti be a place in the middle that diesn’t screw the people and only feeds corporate greed
Billionaire says what? “This is the f***ing billionaires dream she is s***ing on”
And so what the “F” is that supposed to mean? I suppose that we should allow corruption to prevail. And we are forced to speak Russian or die, then what? RichandStupid
The American Dream: 1. Get paid by risking other people’s money with none of your own skin in the game. 2. Create absolutely nothing of value. 3. Make the rest of society foot the bill for your massive fuck ups. 3. Screw over workers again and again.
*american nightmare
The very rich people’s American Dream
Loss of privilege can feel like suppression.
The f****ing Billionaire must have made his money by scamming;! The s**t has no right to talk like a FRAUDSTER! Unless he's one!
Do his tears come in Diet? I have a suit to fit into.
Billionaires should not exist. At some point your excessive greed is just stealing from the economy.
people having healthcare and not dying just because they are poor should be part of the American Dream. We will still have lots of Millionaires and Billionaires.
The American dream where you're the one with all the money while everyone else has none.
Says the guy who wouldn’t be a billionaire if the US taxpayer hadn’t bailed everyone out including his sorry company in 2009.
BREAKING: Billionaire throws hissy fit about possibly having to paying their fair share. The American Dream is supposed to be for all Americans, not just a few asshole billionaires who wont pay their fair share.
If it pisses him off, she must be doing something right.
