🚀 Oh look, rich folks in Europe could solve all our budget woes! Because clearly, the best strategy is to assume the ultra-rich will happily part with their cash to fund bureaucrats' fantasies. 🙄 Can't wait for the next proposal: taxing unicorn tears. 🦄💰

People who can't work for a living have to find some other way to pay their dues to the morbidly rich.
And now tell me again how capitalism differs from cancer?

We’re all suffering the impact of #neoliberalism in one way or another. Growing #WealthInequity due to #FinancialDeregulations; increasing #CostOfLiving due to #Greedflation; and low quality of #SocialServices delivery due to #StateCapture. So it’s no surprise that we live in an economic climate ripe for another dambusting crash that will take us all down with it. Of course, it can all be stopped before there’s no way out of the disaster (both economic and ecological). All that is required is political will. If a madman like #tRump is able to upend USian social and democratic institutions to suit his liking, imagine what a social minded leader could do. It’s not as if no one knows of alternatives to deliver better outcomes for all.
Here is an Australian perspective:

Maybe I’m an exception. Without turning this toot into a book, let me affirm right here that for this #boomer, life has been just as hard as it has been for anyone born after my generation. I’ll add that I was only able to afford my own house at the age of 72 and only with the help of close family members . Nothing has been given to me on a plate as an adult just because I grew up in the post-war years of relatively favourable redistribution of wealth — all of which, and more, has been clawed back in the last 40 yrs or so. As a parting shot, let me just say that all of our collective problems (talking about the 90% of our society) stem from the #neoliberalism which has ensured run-away inequity and the concentration of wealth in the remaining 10% — because we’ve *All* allowed it to occur (due to apathy, brain-washing, stupidity, misinformed, and/or many other faux pas) since the late 70s. All of this to say, I grow tired of all the finger pointing to a single generation for all the ills suffered by society since then. Believe me when I say, I never voted/asked for any of it.Our first step out of this mess is a simple one, *Join Your Union* and fight for what is due to us all.

Right wing extremism isn't a mystery.
"The year before a fulminating Nazi rally in a packed Madison Square Garden in New York, FDR warned that the global rise of fascism was the result of democratic governments doing the opposite of the New Deal and protecting an economic status quo enriching a tiny handful at the expense of everyone else." https://mastodon.online/@davidsirota/116066779899356262

I was just reading that Elon Musk as of January is worth about $800 billion. If you were to tax him at a rate of 99%, he'd still be worth $8 billion. That is just obscene. Society is broken.

"In 2019, when she was twenty-seven, she received an e-mail from her family’s financial adviser: she had been named a primary beneficiary in her grandmother’s will, which meant that, when Traudl died, Engelhorn would inherit tens of millions of euros." —Joshua Raffa for The New Yorker.

Oregonians will have a chance to directly vote to tax wealthy corporations and give the money back to citizens. Any downsides, or is this exactly what we want?

So, another evil thing in the world is how countries are given loans (which are often mismanaged) instead of just being helped out by other countries. The indebted countries are then forced to stoop to #environmental degradation (like selling forests to mining interests) and #HumanRights violations to pay back the debts.

> "If #machines produce everything we need, the outcome will depend on how things are distributed. Everyone can enjoy a life of luxurious leisure if the machine wealth is shared, or most people can end up miserably poor if the machine owners successfully lobby against #wealthRedistribution. So far, the trend seems to be toward the second option, with #technology driving ever-increasing inequality." Professor Stephen Hawking
