Okay, Mark Zuckerberg didn't buy all of Hawaii, but he did buy 700 acres of the fourth largest island, Kauai, which amounts to over one square mile (a square mile being 640 acres). That comes out to about $142,857 per acre. Well, that ought to keep out the riffraff from moving in around the "Z" man's palatial estate.
Mark Zuckerberg has reportedly paid more than $100 million for a swathe of land in Hawaii where he will create a private getaway befitting one of the world's richest men. The Facebook chief executive bought part of Kauai, the fourth largest of the Hawaiian islands, Forbes magazine reported.
His 700 acres on the north shore will include a pristine white sand beach, a former sugarcane plantation, and an organic farm.Under Hawaiian law the the beach will have to remain open to the public as the state has no private stretches of sand.Zuckerberg, 30, who is worth around $33 billion, is the second Silicon Valley billionaire to buy up part of Hawaii.
Now, I don't want to fault Zuckerberg for spending his money the way he sees fit. That's what capitalism is all about. You earn it, you get to spend it the way you see fit, as long as it is legally earned and legally spent. My complaint is that The "Z" supports liberal politics, which is antithetical to the system that allowed him to amass a wealth only bettered by a few other individuals in the entire world. It sort of smack of something like this. I earned it, now screw you. I'm going to keep mine and the hell with you little people. I'll financially support liberals for a quid pro quo to keep my wealth.
Mark Zuckerberg: open borders for you, but I’m buying an island for myself! http://t.co/7i4zqfhFF9 $FB #amnesty

And liberal politicians will be only too happy to be bought and paid for by the "Z" man and others like him, since they will be relatively assured of continuing their lives at the public trough as a career. The two most corrupting influences on politicians are money and power. And when the likes of the "Z" man, George Soros and Tom Steyer, etc. approach liberal politicians, it becomes an act of giving something in order to get something in return from these very same politicians they have bought to do their bidding in the halls of Congress and within the Democrat caucus.
