Communists despise capitalism, not make billions running businesses.
The term champagne socialist exist for a reason. they want power and control, and above all no competition.

The term may exist but it doesn't mean that there are any "billionaire communists" in real life.
Micheal Bloomberg, business maverick, running a media empire, is certainly not one of them lol
Conservative logic: anyone for gun control must be a communist.

The problem is that they already do vote. Often multiple times.

They are known as Democrats.

Raise your hand if you think $50M is any match to the coffers and the 200 year legacy of the NRA?

Who cares what a bunch of minivan soccer moms think about Bloomberg's gun control initiative? It certainly won't counter the depth and scope of the NRA. Not even close.

I know exactly who they are and none of them is a communist. They're in the business of making money.
I am not hijacking anything, I am simply pointing out how absurd it is to call Michael Bloomberg a communist lol
