Interesting podcast about charging rich people with wealth tax to slow the ever increasing wealth inequality!! https://podcasts.google.com/?feed=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnByLm9yZy9yc3MvcG9kY2FzdC5waHA_aWQ9NTEwMjg5&episode=MWYwNzE0OGItNTVlYS00M2YyLTllOTYtMDc5YjNiZTNhZTE5
The funny bit about taxes is that wealthy people can afford to hire those that will help them not pay any of that shit so it always falls back on us
I support taxes on anyone richer than me Edit: or poorer than me
“Don’t tax you, don’t tax me...tax that guy behind the tree....”
Yes let’s tax them and use the money to replace our Stone Age electricity grid
We should bury everything anyways and be more nodular with lots more localized energy storage and production from solar/other. We’re one big CME away from literally plunging society back into the Stone Age. Really...
I don’t think the government should centrally plan income.
You greedy bastards need more than just taxing the rich. You need them to be your slaves and produce more and more wealth that you can tax year after year. If you were to just confiscate all their money right now it wouldn’t be enough to fund the government for a year... that’s why you need them to be slaves.
Income is already taxed
The whole point it punishing people who didn’t blow their fortune (or created some good accounting scheme)
The point is to put the money into circulation and power the economy and not keep it in a trust for spoiled kids.
