If it were true that rich people were important because they invest in good causes without being forced to by governments, besides a 1 of... then nature conservation wouldn’t be an issue. #taxtherich

#TaxTheRich.
#Billionaires are like garbage: unnatural.
In nature, there's #recycling.
No overly greedy animal would survive.
The welfare kings won't die if they become millionaires.
In a civilised society, more wealth means more accountability; In #Trumpistan greed wins.

The New York Times reports that Venezuelan billionaire Julio Herrera Velutini received a full presidential pardon weeks after his daughter's company arranged an employment deal worth potentially more than $50 MILLION with Trump's former lawyer, Alina Habba.
Habba was reportedly finalising the arrangement while still serving at the Justice Department. She denies involvement in securing the pardon.

France 24 propose un sujet intéressant : Vol de plus de 100 milliards d'euros par fraude fiscale des riches tous les ans, qui va payer l'addition ?
Ah non, fausse alerte, autant pour moi :

Was passiert, wenn wir es zulassen, dass Individuen so reich werden, dass sie mehr Macht haben als Staaten?
Sie entscheiden über Leben und Tod.
Und sie kaufen sich Politiker, die dafür sorgen sollen, dass ihre Macht nie mehr eingeschränkt wird.

@avilewis same in Europe - neoliberals sucking public funds dry aided by politicians who are corrupt or at least benefit in some way and call themselves "conservatives".
It is high time for change. To have a chance for a better future. Or a future at all. #TaxTheRich Throw out politics that is not social or still favours fossil interests. -
Have a read of #AmyRemeikis in #ThePoint. She taps all of the issues on the head and her view is well argued. I dare say, most of us here would agree with her. And while the deliberate misuse of technology for nefarious ends is rightly blamed for increasing violent reactions, so is the management of our economy (aka Govt policies and legislative agenda).
After all, what could be easier for malfeasants than tap into the anger and frustration of those in our society who have been forgotten (which is most of us I hasten to add) because they are merely thought of as *externalities* or *parameters* in a system of wealth distribution designed to favour the few.
The principal salves to our ills are quite simply an economy geared towards the better good of all in our society and a govt with a priority to serve all Australians equitably. The fact that we have neither in operation (in fact, there’s only fierce opposition to them from the benefiting layers of our society) has given rise to, and continue to nurture the violence we are witnessing (and the violence we don’t see) in Australia.
When a pauper sees a king and his retinue parade by, what can he do but throw mud at the ostentatious display of wealth to make his outrage known.

We have actual cancer researchers who could use the funding.
We can start with them before inventing hypothetical Elon Musk achievements.
