Homelessness won't be ended with just money, it'll be solved with (or caused by) politics and policies.

But the reason it's a "fallacy" is AOC could donate 100% of her current salary for 63,000 years and that would equal 1% of Elon's current net worth.

Even if you did get 1% of Elon's money, it wouldn't be enough. Real change comes from structural change, not pure cash.

And as the original person pointed out, you're clearly smart enough to know that.

I didn't say anything about Elon's money being related to AOC's morals. I said AOC's morals were dependent on her donating her money without bragging about it. The claim of logical fallacy does not follow.
