We all know Ro Khanna is insanely wealthy. Despite that, Khanna pretends he's a champion for the working class. But in reality, the policies Khanna supports — like a wealth tax, including on unrealized capital gains — would crash the economy, cost people jobs, and lead to massive amounts of wealth fleeing the country.

Khanna recently got into a fight with Mark Cuban over it, with the latter absolutely hammering Khanna for his stupid proposals, which included making illiquid business owners take out a loan from the government to pay the wealth tax, and letting the government sell their stocks if they can't pay back the loan.

Now David Friedberg, the South African-American entrepreneur, is blasting Khanna for being an absolute hypocrite.

"It's a lot easier to claim an enemy, get elected, than it is to fix a difficult policy problem," Friedberg said. "And I think that's the fundamental ... concern I have right now."

"I don't think the people that are complaining and that are trying to go down the socialist path are wrong in how they're feeling. I think they're absolutely right," he continued, "and I think the politicians take advantage of it. I think that they feed into it in a way that doesn't actually look into realistic solutions. It's about inciting emotional responses to get themselves votes."

"Ro Khanna is the perfect example of this. This is some dude who has a $300 million net worth; his children have memberships at three country clubs," Friedberg said. "Literally, his kids have memberships at three country clubs. His kids own a piece of country clubs. The dude lives in a $10 million house in Washington, D.C. and he used to be the moderate Silicon Valley guy who would go around to all the tech CEOs ... 'Hey, give me your money. I'm a moderate. We're going to make the Democratic Party work for you.'"

"And then he saw the tides change. And he's like, 'Oh this is yum yum. I'm going to run for President in 2028.' That guy, just to be clear on this, he's so unlikable I think he'll likely end up being Secretary of Housing and Urban Development if AOC is elected president," he said.

Friedberg added, "It's so crazy because he saw the moment and he seized it and he said, 'Okay, we can go for socialism.'"

"I’m not investing in start-ups to eat 100% of losses and keep 50% (after federal and state tax) of gains. People will take less risk," the user wrote. 

He's correct. People will take less risk.

We do have a spending problem. And the Democrats' solution is to ... spend more.

The hypocrisy is glaring, of course. Khanna wants all of us to pay more in taxes, to steal five percent of Friedberg's wealth, and he hides his income and wealth in tax shelters under his kids' name.
