        I know that no one is actually serious when they say this, but I think all it would take would be one.
        If we just drag Bezos or Musk out in the streets and have an actual barbecue with them I feel like the rest would start to support a wealth tax pretty fucking quickly.

          The rich would use the media to create a zombie style fear of the average person and sow paranoia to rouse security systems like police and national guard to action. They would lock down everyone rather than suffer losing one person.

          Keep in mind that eating just one rich isn’t as scary as the promise of eating more. The rich will use their their considerable resources, and cooperate, to stop them from succumbing to populist hunger.

      Money is not true value, currency is a placeholder for true value that is used to facilitate trade. Rich people are worth less than the profits they extract from coordinating labor. But they extract enough to think they’re still better than those they exploit.
