Part of the problem is all the fucking morons saying that the world economy isn’t a zero-sum proposition. If the economy isn’t zero-sum then we can just give everyone a billion dollars on paper and they could just buy their own houses. Inflation, what is that?
Do you have any concept of how many average houses a billion dollars could buy you?
Assuming a house is $400,000 to be generous, it is ~2,500 if we ignore taxes and fees. Elon musks “wealth” could buy just about 320,000,000 nice family homes in most US states.
Thats a house for nearly every person in the US if we liquidated just his hoard. The next 20 billionaires have at least $100B according to the live Forbes list. There are >3,000 more of these parasites.
And these fuckers are hoarding houses too. Not to mention throwing away food and medicine in the name of profit.
Have you misread my comment so much that you think I am in favor of billionaires? I absolutely know how much good could come from taxing billionaires on their wealth rather than their “income”. I understand that the world economy isn’t zero-sum and that every billionaire is a parasite that sickens society as a whole. Please re-read my comment and see that I am not a bootlicker.
Yes, i struggle with syntax sometimes. My comment previously said “your” bootlicking. I changed it in case i misread your comment; though i felt the statement important enough to leave for any would be bootlickers.

The bootlicking is pathetic.

Edit: i said liquidate, not tax.
Inflation is dictated by the market. We eliminate the markets.
Apparently /s is still required even if it is obvious.
