Always hated that they pretend you cant tax unreleased gains when they are perfectly capable of raising loans against them. If unrealized gains can be used to secure loans then they have a quantifiable value that can be taxed.

The problem is they have found it cheaper to buy ALL politicians than it is to actually pay tax. It only leaves a few options left....

Imagine if you took $100 billion from any of these Goblins, they wouldn't even notice it, but that money could fund homeless solutions (or any other problem) forever.

There is no other way (well… besides revolution)

The backlash that you'll receive from the cronies of mega-capital will make revolution inevitable. That's assuming you can get so far as to democratically reform the tax code in an electoral system that cages voters, manufacturers consent, and manipulates the courts to guarantee only their people hold office.

Minimum tax that they can never go below. Start penalizing tax havens like Ireland.

There are already inheritance taxes but they should have caps on them since they hit intergenerational wealth and social mobility for lower and middle classes far more than the upper.

If only poor people could purchase senators and congressmen (and Supreme Court justices).

Talk about a gross oversimplification. Venice grew out of mosquito infested lagoon due to necessity. The Venetian people were driven into the lagoon multiple times over centuries as a means of protection from Germanic invasions in the 7th century. They capitalized on shipping and trade just like any other population would do and used those riches to make their citizens lives better. What would you have expected them to do? Turn away from the money spice trading and Mediterranean shipping traffic brought them because it would make them too rich? Because again, they were a people used to fleeing into a mosquito infested lagoon when their farming population was invaded by multiple armies.

For that reason, comparing an entire cultural population like Venice to a singular person is a false equivalency. Bezos hasn't used his shipping fortune to enrich anyone but himself, but at least Venetian royalty built buildings and public spaces for their population.

Shipping of enslaved peoples even

Once this doesn't happen remember that god is not real and that destiny it's in your hands.

God knows you're faking, because he knows that to believe in him you'll have to give up on women's rights, science, etc

15 minutes later it will be over

Worse, we'll have users telling us how this (somehow) is good for the left and downvoting everyone who lives there and says otherwise

The people are too blind and mute.

I think workers would be better than drones. Drones can't even sting.
