Tbh who cares? Whenever any wealth redistribution plan gets brought up there's always so much concern that money doesn't get spent on the "wrong people." And as a result of that we end up creating a fuckton of bureaucracy to verify and gatekeep who is and isn't worthy of getting help, which invariably costs more than if we just... didn't do that.

Give Kanye and Oprah a check, whatever, I'd rather them get some money than spend an order of magnitude more on red tape
