I wouldn’t mind them having money so much if it wasn’t for them spending it on destroying democracy
too late for wealth tax.
what does the wealthy having wealth do for me? its not as if my home or possessions are sacred. I gain nothing from the taboos that protect them.
the time for a wealth tax was fifty years ago. most of us hadn’t been born yet. Now is the time for avenging the victims of property, for taking the world back, for casting off this great weight and unleashing human flourishing, production, art.
I finally obtained a numerical value. 50$ mil and up is considered the ultra rich and the benchmark for a wealth tax.
100mil and up would be more worth it be cause you were to do a fixed rate of 7% more than the general population redistribution would seem more worth it. Taxing the super duper rich 3% could’ve worked in 2009.
I still think to myself : There’s people out there with all the money in the world… People who have the ability to better society and instead they just do shit like donate a wing for tax write offs and if there’s no tax write-off or passive income for 20 years there’s no point to those people.
You know what, I looked at my fiancé sometime at the beginning of this month and I said to her: " If I had that kind of money if I had trillions of dollars to just piss away, I would buy up so many old hospitals and make them functional. I’d find all the people I’ve wronged and I’d build trusts for their kids to go to college and give them 5 million each to do whatever the fuck they want with, buy a house, invest whatever they want.
I would donate a fuck load to every special needs school, I would overhaul my home city, I would overhaul the one I live in, I would put so much back into the lives of those that matter to me and others.
And it’s crazy that there’s people out there with nearly all the money in the world and they won’t help anyone but themselves."
She looked at me with her eyes wide with a smile, that like that of you son of a bitch you would too kind of smile.
In that moment after I said all of that it made me realize: THAT’S PART OF IT!!! FUCK!!! There’s people with nearly all the money in the world and will never have to worry about anything for generations to come unless they choose to indulge in a different lifestyle than what they grew up with and they choose to just never put any of it back into society.
Well fuck that! , maybe there should be forced to give back some of their wealth back into society to better the planet instead of just keeping it all for themselves.
I ultimately understood wealth redistribution after saying there’s people with nearly all the money in the world and they choose to not help a soul.
Fedposting on main
why announce it? seems like that would negate the point.
Why not both?
its very hard to tax a completely dispossesses living post human object created as a monument to pain and experiment in suffering.
also taxes require a state. those tend to go bad places.
I mean, you’re not wrong I guess
While their possessions are hard to tax, they themselves are still fragile meat sacks.
kill them, or make them wish you had!
who says the only solution is killing?
I am stunned Prop 40 is polling so badly. Billionaires really bamboozled the half of Californians dumber than the average Californian.
Democracy under capitalism isn’t difficult, it’s impossible.
only blood. they won’t have anything else.
I’ve heard the rich are made of fiber
And high in protein
But full of shit.
No problem, in a few years you’ll see similar articles, titled “Faeces has more nutrients than you would think” (read: “eat shit, pleb”).
But we’re gonna eat the rich because they’re full of fiber, protein, and shit. After that, the rich will no longer be alive to tell us to eat shit.
too much fiber can cause constipation too.
People do throw out tons of good stuff though. We can eat the rich and be sustainable

Do you know how much water it takes to get 1 kilo of rich meat? Not to mention the carbon footprint.
It’s worse than beef.Eating fruit and vegetable scraps such as peels and stalks could provide a health boost that most of us are missing, say UK researchers.
They say scraps are an overlooked source of dietary fibre and are encouraging people to try “root-to-tip” eating, including watermelon rind, pineapple core and butternut squash seeds.

I was going to agree with the article, but nevermind. There has to be a better way to get your fiber.
There has to be a better way to get your fiber.
There definitely are. This is some bullshit “publish or die” noise. Please ignore and focus on the class war. 😅💟
It was just this year that I found out I was peeling carrots for no reason.
I am all about the watermelon rind, that is tasty. Not the skin though.
I doing know why people don’t like pineapple core; it’s like a crunchier, milder pineapple. And pumpkin seeds are eaten quite commonly as a snack throughout the world.
TBF peeling is a big waste of food
Stalks be nasty tho
I mean, all you’d have to do is make a smoothie.
mhhmmm watermelon rind smoothie. My next favourite thing after Fall leaves lasagna.
I prefer fall leaf sausage.
That’s not even about being sustainable, it’s just about being healthy.
Eat your fiber, how are you going to overthrow the rich if you can’t take a shit?
