    The money raised by taxing billionaires out of existence will do more than help with the budget. Taking their money would make it impossible for billionaires to buy governments and write budgets to benefit themselves.

  6. “We should end the ‘tax-free lifestyle loan,’ the gimmick that lets the ultra-wealthy borrow against their stock portfolios while reporting no taxable income.”

    Jeremy Lent: Ecocivilization

    "Lent’s goal is to synthesize dozens of proven and promising genres of existing projects and real-world activism. Some of these are daring and paradigm-breaking. Others operate well within the dominant market/state system but offer credible possibilities for post-capitalist transitions."

    – David Bollier, host of the podcast 𝘍𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘊𝘰𝘮𝘮𝘰𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨

  12. Two taxes on the rich are proposed by Prof. Prabhat Patnaik, a Marxist economist.

    1. #InheritanceTax - when the kids of the rich inherit the wealth of their parents, they must be taxed. India currently doesn't have this tax. Japan has up to 55% of this tax.

    2. #WealthTax - by simply taxing the top 1% of the wealthiest people in India for 2% of their wealth we can raise ₹6.6 Lakh crores (2022) and use it to fund public schemes. Let the rich contribute to the nation.

  13. Elon Musk's Absolutist Free Speech (where he absolutely gets to do/say whatever he wants) has cost him $31.5 B, losing 72% of his Twitter investment in 15 months.

    Absolutely a business genius.

  14. @pluralistic Excellent thread, mostly annoys the heck out of me because you're wrapping up and bowing ideas I've been kicking around for a decade and more, betteer than I've been able to: #homelessness #MMT, #MoralisingPathology, #AssetInflation, #wealth, #poverty, #inequality, #WealthTax, #LVT, #capitalism, #postcapitalism, and more.

    I'm going to amplify and extend a bit, you and readers may find this useful.

    I'm going to break this out by themes.
