    In late stage capitalism, having a billion and owing three billion means you in effect still have a billion.

    It’s not like with normal people who have to subtract debt from assets and actually pay what we owe.

    So yeah, he’s a billionaire in all ways that affect him and will be until he dies, which can’t happen soon enough.
