This is sort of like the depreciation tax benefit for private jets from the Trump tax cuts. I get it, I do, I just don't care for the government offering extra help for the types of people in this scenario. Let them manage with their billions.

If not for the billionaires, why do governments exist?

Huh... Recent context has really ruined jokes like this...

You have to go at it the other way, now:

As someone of modest means, I fully support and endorse giving billoinaires more money. After all, if they don't have money, then what will trickle down to me?

Wait no that's still not funny at all.
