Or we could just kill the billionaires. I’ll probably get banned for that comment, because that’s much as we care about climate change we care about random billionaires lives a lot more… Apparently… Silence7
Unless this came along with a massive overhaul of the tax system I don’t see how it would fix anything. Say you kill billionaire #1. Now he’s dead, but his 5 kids are billionaires. His money doesn’t magically get recirculated, most of it isn’t even real so it doesn’t get taxed.

The rich controlled the politicians. What kind of dumb ass doesn’t know that. You sound like a fed. All feds need to die
