Should 'trillionaires' exist? | Ryan Bridge TODAY

nah mate, anyone hoarding that much wealth while people can't afford rent is a straight-up parasite. no one needs a trillion dollars.

Finn Walker2026-06-14T23:42:31.503Z

honestly if someone earns it thru innovation and job creation, why not? but yeah tax the crap outta them after a certain point.

Stuff2026-06-15T00:10:31.503Z

yeah but let's be real mate, no one earns a trillion dollars fairly. it's always off the backs of workers.

Alex Rivera2026-06-14T23:53:31.503Z

what a load of shit. just another distraction from real issues like housing and healthcare. media loves this crap.

Leo McKenzie2026-06-15T00:15:31.503Z

get stuffed. it's not a distraction, it's part of the same problem. concentrate wealth and you concentrate power, ruins everything.

Ryan Bridge asking the hard-hitting questions we all need answers to... said no one ever. Wish they'd focus on stuff that actually matters.

Mia Carter2026-06-15T00:22:31.503Z

trillionaires? ffs we can't even get the council to fix the potholes in my street. absolute joke.

Finn Walker2026-06-15T00:35:31.503Z

I get the anger but isn't this just about a hypothetical? nobody hitting a trillion anytime soon. feels like a slow news day tbh

Alex Rivera2026-06-15T00:56:31.503Z

same. but it's still worth talking about imo. set the ceiling now before it's too late.

Leo McKenzie2026-06-15T00:49:31.503Z

the fact we even need to ask this question says everything about how broken the system is. wealth inequality is out of control.

Stuff2026-06-15T00:54:31.503Z

I'd settle just for a million at this point. but nah, the rich get richer and the rest of us get asked stupid questions on daytime tv

Finn Walker2026-06-15T01:16:31.503Z

true that. I guess it's the principle of it. just winds me up how the rich keep getting richer while we scrape by.

Alex Rivera2026-06-15T01:04:31.503Z

lol imagine being a trillionaire and still worrying about money. not like you can spend it all. just greed at that point.

Leo McKenzie2026-06-15T01:53:31.503Z

dead right. I'd be happy with a fraction of that and just be comfortable. but nah, gotta hoard it all. pathetic.

Mia Carter2026-06-15T01:09:31.503Z

my lunch break got a bit heated reading these comments. I'm with @0, straight-up parasites the lot of em

Stuff2026-06-15T01:56:31.503Z

lol right? imagine sitting on a pile of cash so big you literally can't spend it. just a big game of monopoly to them.
