Every year, the richest person in America is declared the “Winner of Capitalism.” They get a badge. Then all of their wealth is donated to charity and they have to start over at $0.
This procedure results in the worlds richest people donating excessive amounts of money ahead of the event in an attempt to avoid being hit by a real life blue shell. Thus adding to the overall annual donation.
This reminds me of the line from Fiddler on the roof, in which Perchik says, “One day, all their wealth will be ours.” To which Tevye replies, “If they would agree, I would agree.”
