Seriously "on point" article. https://hartmannreport.com/p/what-happens-when-you-tax-billionaires-fa3
@TwiHusband i don't even need 90%. can you imagine what we could do w/ 30% or 50%? it would be such a massive improvement to overall society. you could eradicate child poverty, house everyone, provide free healthcare to pretty much everyone, & you could support those w/ disabilities & elderly in a way that preserves dignity.
game changer.
@singlemaltgirl The 50% funding would be good, but I regard the 90% as pest control. Every time the Conservatives grant the wealthy too much income, and therefore too much power, they end up burning half the country down. I submit the wealthy sect of "The Dominionists" as an example.
I don't mind some people living in luxury, if they've earned it, but 10% of a billion dollars is still an obscene amount of money. More than anyone needs or should have.
@singlemaltgirl I mean Musk and Bezos are running their own damn competing space programs. What more proof do we need?
