    Sadly, even if that billion dollars was somehow taxed, the obstructionists in government would be sure to stop it from going to reproductive rights. So oddly enough a billionaire is the only way for this kind of good to happen.

        It’s harder to obstruct the greater majority of people in other governmental systems. Ours is set up so literally one bad actor can fully hijack the entire legislative process, and that bad actor can be elected by the minority of the population.
