It's interesting to me that Swifties look over the fact that she entertains company with Patrick Mahomes' brother, someone that is in the midst of settling his sexual assault case and only received probation (likely b/c his connections). Or that she continues to attend events of an organization that routinely tries to stifle legitimate protests and would treat their players like garbage if the NFLPA didn't exist.

In the end, she's like everyone else. You look over the sins of those that are somehow tied to your group but make a huge stink about when it's others.

Swifties triggered.

I understand why Queen B or T Swift aren't doing it, but the only moral activity (beyond survival tasks) that a "good billionaire" can be engaged in is redistributing their wealth to marginalized workers.

You can figure out your next album / tour or how to benefit your friends and family once you get to 999M USD.

Ok, so Taylor Swift seems to get the billionaire hate here. I'm wondering, when it comes to successful artists, what's the opinion on Dolly. She's not a billlionaire, but she is worth several hundred millions, so it's close enough. She seems to be beloved by almost everyone.

Is Dolly Parton a billionaire? She has numerous assistance programs. I figure she wouldn’t be.

I'm so so on this example specifically.

Most of Taylor's wealth is in the value of the rights to her songs. The liquid value she gets from those rights she is generally pretty generous with, she pays her employees very well and donated quite a bit of it.

That said, the bar is on the floor, and even a good billionaire is still pretty bad. She has much to improve

The statement about billionaires is true, but also the reasons that people end up living on the streets are extremely complex and I'm not sure this sort of thing helps us actually talk about the real problems.

For instance, a lot of homeless people in the US are foster children who aged out of the care system:

Nationwide, the data show that an estimated 50 percent of the homeless population spent time in foster care.

Money could maybe provide more resources to care for people, but the core issue here is that adults who were foster children lack the support of a family - which no amount of money can fix.

A more useful question to address homelessness would be "why do so many foster children struggle to become self-supporting adults, and what can we do to prevent that?"

Oh jeeze, you mentioned Swift in a meme. I feel sorry for your inbox.

Ask yourself how that billionaire was made first
