      I love his honesty, and he knows few, if any, of his voters are even millionaires, much less billionaires.

      He knows his base. He talks to his base.

      Billionaires aren’t voting for him anyway.

      He’s right and we support him. The wealth vacuum in this country is at a dangerous point.

      It was tolerable when the ultra-wealthy kept their heads down and, at the very least, paid lip service to the fact that their wealth depended on the rest of society.
      But for some reason, a significant percentage don’t feel they need to acknowledge that anymore. And all that does, is paint a big target on their backs, figuratively speaking.

      There’s a swamp and it needs to be drained but it’s not a fictional deep state, it’s billionaires.

      >Zohran Mamdani, the presumptive Democratic nominee for mayor in New York City, said Sunday that he doesn’t believe billionaires should exist.

      >Asked directly whether billionaires should have a right to exist, Mamdani, who identifies himself as a democratic socialist, told NBC News’ “Meet the Press,” “I don’t think that we should have billionaires because, frankly, it is so much money in a moment of such inequality, and ultimately, what we need more of is equality across our city and across our state and across our country.”

      >“And I look forward to working with everyone, including billionaires, to make a city that is fair for all of them,” he added.

      People become billionaires either through the exploitation of the working people or by inheriting it from someone who has exploited the working people. Whether directly or indirectly, that kind of wealth is always achieved by taking advantage of people in some unethical way.

      There is no a single billionaire on this earth that has not made some group suffer in order to achieve their wealth.

      For that reason Mamdani is right, billionaires shouldn’t exist.

      I think the billionaire class should stop and 1 billion and a plaque award stating the recipient won capitalism, any amount pass 1 billion should be taxed 100% (after a grace period to divest of it on your own terms) with the only way to avoid such, being to split the value among different people (Musk gets to give his children 1 billion, he keeps 1 billion and so on).

      No such things as an ethical or moral billionaire. Yes, that includes your favorite singer. Eat the fucking rich.

      I’d support the guy for sure, however this messaging never works. As usual, Democrats need better messaging and will fail trying the tax the billionaires line (even if it’s accurate)

      The number of billionaires we have is a measure of the failure of capitalism. So I think he is right. Money begets more money until there is no fair ground on which to stand…

      Fuck the rich people pay your fair share to society instead of looking down at us from your posh abodes

      Billionaires are proof positive that the whole supply-side economics push was one hundred percent bullshit.

    24. herewego199209 on

      the billions are not liquid so the billionaires don’t actually ever pay out their fair share of the taxes. This creates wealth inequality. If Elon Musk can borrow loans on his Tesla stock forever he never has to pay capital gains on that money so that velocity of money is never put back into the country or state he lives in. Even when billionaires pass away their estates get around the capital gains by inheritance laws.

      He’s right. They should pay their fair share of taxes instead of hoarding their wealth, which they can’t take with them after death anyway.

      If more people understood how large a Billion is maybe they would be as outraged as I am.

      1 million seconds = 11 days

      1 billion seconds = 33 Fucking years.

      If someone had 1 billion invested in the stock market they on avg will make around $100 million dollars a year. 100 fucking MILLION without doing anything.

      Guess where they spend that $100 million? On buying politicians and hiring tax experts to save them more of their money and funnel it to Panama accounts.

      We absolutely need to tax these leeches to make sure every single person in this world has 3 meals a day and a roof over their head with their full-time jobs.
