I usually vote for "far-left" parties, yet I have no idea how Dorsey giving $1B away "is a clear case study of the amount of wealth destroyed _by gutting government_", so maybe the downvoters simple don't think emeerson has made a good and clear point.

To clarify my thinking: defunding Govt' pandemic preparedness became a forcing function for the individually wealthy to deploy private capital with much higher $$$ cost.

Point taken that its a stretch of the imagination.
