The reason why a reverseLottery for the #extremelyWealthy is needed, is because it introduces #uncertainty - or "Constructive Ambiguity".
If everything #tax related is 'set in stone' so to speak, the extremely wealthy will hire the best #taxLawyers to go up to the thresholds of what is "#legal".
By introducing a #SlidingScaleOfUncertainty, those #perverseIncentives start to go out the window.
It just won't be worth playing these myopic #taxAvoidance tricks.

If a #billionaire doesn't pay at least 50% in tax, but #laundersIdentity through #philanthropy, they should go into a database. At random one (or 2%) of these #billionaires will have to pay 70% of their yearly #revenue in that country in tax or be #brokenUtp.Our namesake, #DickSmith, as part of his #FairGo movement wanted the #extremelyWealthy to pay they way.
He called for more #transparency on tax returns – to shame those #greedy, wealthy few.

We knew that #PeakOil would rear its head eventually but the way they are using the virus to build #apartied is dishonest.They likely saw what happened in #France with the #YellowVests and they thought, better to use a proxy like #covid. Also was a convenient scapegoat to raid people's #superannuation, last year.
It also means the #extremelyWealthy, #celebrities and #MICIMATT can still fly. If we declared scarce oil then, everyone would need to ration energy use.

From what we can tell, its #PeakOil for the 99% with #travel unaffected for the #corporatists and #extremelyWealthy 1%.
Many of the people who could afford to leave #NY or #London, for example, have left. They appear to have gone to less populated regions and #islands.
Just one of the reasons why we say #overdevelopment is bad news. It allows the…1/5

Pick your machine that will work for you.The #extremelyWealthy have picked killerDrones and have average people training them courtesy of #hCaptcha. They worship #theBeautyOfTheirWeapons.
People have used machines for hundreds of years. We need to decide what technology is for us and what is for them…
And we better not take too long about it.
Our choices are #AI and #walledGardens that enslave us, or #bitcoin and #libreSoftware to empower us.

Have people worked out that the extremelyWealthy are now just buying #bitcoin every time money is printed for them?
The only difference between how an elite and how a pleb buys bitcoin is that the pleb stores their keys unencrypted on a server owned by the #extremelyWealthy.
Later when elite steal your coins they will blame it on "#hackers".
Tell your friends to be very careful.

The 2nd episode of this is really over the top with #KeynesianEconomics, which abuses the environment like nothing we had seen before, and helped fund the rise of #Germany in the 1930's.#Keynesianism is #deathcult stuff. People crow about it today under the label, #ModernMonetaryTheory (#MMT). Be super wary of them. The fact is we are living under MMT already, and it serves the #extremelyWealthy and well-connected. The #MMTPushers pretend that we don't have this, because…1/2

Go and read #198fucking4 now, please.
Our #extremelyWealthy are getting paid to lie, cheat, steal, murder on a daily basis and they are writing the laws to enable this. They are raiding you and your #children's future, for #hedonistic #power.
#WakeTheFuckUp!

2/2…#environmentalVandalism, #nuclearEnergy (note we mine #uranium here in Australia), #GhostCities, #overdevelopment, #pollution… and much more.
We lamented these and other abuses and the #extremelyWealthy labelled us #racist or flatly ignored us, rather than reducing #Australia's dependence on China. Now many smooth-talking #westerners have been booted out of China and #HongKong and they want you on their side.
Keep this firmly in your mind.
You are being played by the wealthy yet again.

Those in positions of power cannot engage with those people who know the truth about them. They would rather throw them money to do nothing than attempt to employ them in any meaningful way.
People who understand the #totalitarian nature of the #corporateState are dangerous and cannot be allowed to interact with the #extremelyWealthy.

We will be facing much bigger threats than even #ClimateChange, like the post-#Peakoil collapse.
Expect the #extremelyWealthy to barracade themselves from the rest of us.
That's when things will really get ugly. Think #privateIslands, #droneWarfare, #radiationWarfare, #massSurveillance on every street corner and every #workSite.
That's when we really need to be worried. We need to fight for #humanity in an #energy depleted future?

#Immigration is by no means a preserve of the #RadicalLeft. Quite the opposite.In fact, real geninue leftists and unionised workers over the past few hundred years have rallied against #extremeImmigration.
For example workers in northern #UnitedStates once fought to stop the #extremelyWealthy from bringing in workers from the southern US.
Nothing in this world is black and white.
We encourage nuanced debate.

Stop driving though our posh suburb yelling #freeJulianAssange. We are #extremelyWealthy and don't pay taxes so people like you die in #highrise #slums on near #airPollution.
We went to great lengths to suppress #corporateMedia so we don't see or hear about you precious #journalism being #onTrial. "#TrialOfTheCentury"? Pfft whatever. We live in luxury courtesy of #bombing and producing quality #refugees and #migrantWorkers - and love #weaponsManufacturing.
Keep your ethics off our street!

If Progressive #LandTax which affects the #extremelyWealthy translates to better #regulation (read: #protections) against the worst excesses of #bigBusiness, as it would under a GreenParty not beholden to them would - then, #heckYes! -
It's good to see that some in #Australia have been able to identify #JobKeeper as a #scam. Designed to enrich the #powerElite, and the #extremelyWealthy, while regular honest #Australians, #casualWorkers, #unemployed and the #lessFortunate are left behind.
Good to see people hashtagging #NoWorkersLeftBehind and #WageSubsidyForAll but what did you make of those hashtags?
Did you actually #organise?
This is why we need #alternativeMedia and more using Tor and I2P.

Do people in rich neighbourhoods like it when you protest for #JulianAssange while passing through their treelined, peaceful streets?
Honest question.
I personally think they would because at least on social media, they tend to signal their virtue a lot.

#LandTax is supposed to be 15% of what you might get as #rent if you rented the property.This is designed to spread the #tax load over the #extremelyWealthy, who have land that is a lot more #productive and/or in the expensive areas, when compared to most peoples' land.
Currently we are being forced to pay more because the extremely wealthy use phony #profitLoss statements, #blindTrusts, #taxhavens and other tricks.
There is a fairer system kept hidden.

PS. We are not Dick, just supporters of his #FairGo movement, which involves three main pillers being #reduce the extreme #populationGrowth that serves only the very #extremelyWealthy by providing more #consumers and #lowerWages, making sure the wealthy pay their fair share in tax, and getting money out of politics. -

Despite how #talkingHeads in our media like to #virtueSignal by showing support for open-borders, it's not a great thing for the vast majority. Currently the west has a type of "open borders".
Its if-you-are-a-perfect-subservient-worker type of open-border, despite what some will have you believe.
The fact remains that rapid #populationGrowth favours the #extremelyWealthy, who benefit by having more #consumers, and a more #indebted and #desperate pool of workers to choose from. N..(2/5)

The #extremelyWealthy #onePercenters love that we are distracted from #HenryGeorge-style #taxation. Until its adopted the #elite will continue to continue with #taxEvasion via #financialEngineering. Its too easy to claim losses to #shellCorporations and mates.
See also #Georgism, or 18th century book, #ProgressAndPoverty.
Quick question: Does NZ non-organic #bread and other confections also have #soyFlour (as they do in #Australia)?

#UniversalBasicIncome (#UBI) can form part of the solution here. Everyone has the right to #subsistence, things like #shelter/#food/ access to the #commons/ #roads/ including digital commons.
#Wages shouldnt be taxed - improved #land and its value should. Land not only has #naturalResources but access to our greatest #energySource - the #sun (it makes food grow).
The #extremelyWealthy #onePercenters love that...
