💼🤑 Ah, the land of opportunity, where #workers snatch a measly 27% of the wealth pie while the rest lies in a Scrooge McDuck vault somewhere. Meanwhile, #billionaires write love letters to #philanthropy in the form of tax-deductible donations. 📉🙃

As enthusiasts and skeptics argue over the environmental implications of hyperscale data centers, the impact on wealth distribution gets left out.
"AI companies have their eyes set on capturing all the value created by entire industries."
Let that sink in. How does indentured servitude sound? Digital serfdom, feudalism? Keep bickering over closed-loop though.

I love this quote. It highlights the absurdity at the heart of our society.
Under capitalism, it's very normal to let children go hungry, let banks force people out of their homes, let sick people die for lack of access to healthcare. But the idea that billionaires could just be less rich, not poor, not struggling, just less rich, is considered insane.

CW: wealth inequality, Plato, Elon Musk
"...of all the numbers I’ve seen, the one that struck me most forcefully was a calculation in The Times that Mr. Musk’s net worth is five million times as large as that of the average American family." #Plato #WealthInequality

Musk tweeted that if the WFP could describe exactly how $6 billion would solve world hunger using open-source accounting, he would "sell Tesla stock right now and do it."

~"... the explosion of #wealth at the very top is without precedent in #US history. At the height of the Gilded Age at the end of the 19th century, the richest handful of Americans had a net worth equivalent to about 3% of the country’s annual economic output... Today, the fortunes of the same 0.00001% — about 20 individuals — make up roughly four times as large a share, equivalent to 12% of annual output."

Get on your bike, Work overtime. Find a second job. Find a third job. Find yourself a roommate. Get married. Work overtime
Funny how every “solution” to making ends meet demands that we lower our standards, but the billionaires are never asked to lower theirs.

We need One Million People each having One Million Dollars, rather than One person like Elon Musk having One Trillion Dollars!

So imagine this. The world's hegemon, with the world reserve currency, has #financialized it's #economy, it's savings, etc - with a lot of bubbles hidden behind speculation.
Then you have a general income issue, whereby #WealthInequality is shrinking the economy and the consumers buying power.
Add to that oligarchs fleeing the country and setting up livable bunkers.
Delinquency rates on almost every type of major loan on the rise as #Americans’ savings hit rock bottom

CW: CW: auspol, qldpol, mansion tax.
Ice-cold take: a tenant who can afford Bulimba’s median $1225/week house rent isn’t in #housing distress, let alone one who can afford the median $2.3 million purchase price.
How about building dwellings for people genuinely priced out of adequate housing? Why not actually address #WealthInequality, rather than merely shift the blame for decades of poor policy?

CW: Rant about Billionaires
The US is going to mint a few hundred more billionaires this month with the tech IPO's and possibly a trillionaire.
But my 80 year-old mom can't drive for DoorDash anymore because of the Iran War.
I don't understand how anyone, save those few thousand billionaires, are honestly patriotic here in the US.
I just don't fucking get it.

Apparently my mom's social security direct deposit is half what it should be this month.
In case you were feeling patriotic, just remember this goddamn country is apparently robbing elderly people too.
