Isnt he the one who thinks life expectancy increase is due to the increased wealth of the 1%. Ofc you have to be totally insane to believe that the average is greatly increased by a few millionaires/billionaires doubling and tripling their wealth as opposed advances in healthcare and technology.

Also someone going from making $10m /year to making $100m/ years will most likely not affect his life expectancy as opposed to someone going from $60k to $30k.
