    It might not be sufficient to solve our problems but it is necessary.

    Side note: Let’s make necessary/sufficient conditions a well known concept in our cultural zeitgeist. It would automatically defuse a lot bullshit.

        For the state, taxing the rich, definitely funds government.

        But taxing rich should be used to bring wealth back to earth. They only use their money to consolidate power and destroy society. We know this that is their public project.

                    @blogdiva All I'm saying is, most of us want to tax the ultra wealthy and I recommend they work with us on that...

                    ...because there are people out there who'll take a different approach & there isn't a bunker or remote island or security system or drone for when people hate you that much

                      @blogdiva very simple solution for this. Government should control every single sector. Privatization is killing the society

                            @blogdiva Taxing the rich won't fix it. But how about eating the rich? Will that get us out of this mess?

                            How about launching them into the sun? Will that do? I'm definitely interested in non-taxation solutions. 😃

                            The delta-v required to launch them into the sun is problematic, whereas launching them into the moon with a hard enough impact to leave a crater visible to Earth is both a easy trajectory solved decades ago & would provide a visual warning to future generations.

                                      @blogdiva He's right. Taxing them is not enough. Confiscatory policy is the only option.
                                      All who have more than a million dollars lose it all (above that). Or live in Russia.
                                      Those are the new rules.
