      Yeah but consider how difficult it is to remove them.

        Difficult in what way?

            Yes. You just keep saying it’s difficult with no explanation.

              Well it’s a statement so obvious I hardly assumed it needed explaining. Have you ever thought about the practical aspect of removing billionaires? How exactly do you think it will happen? There are several methods and they’re all very difficult.

                The fuck it is.

                We can tax them out of existence.

                They exists because the other 7-8 billion people allow them to exist.

                Your lack of will and imagination is not a limiting factor for the rest of us.

                  We can tax them out of existence.

                  Okay, let’s start with that.

                  HOW?

                  In the US, Congress is in charge of taxation laws. How do we get enough congressmen on board with a tax hike on billionaires?

                  How do we do the tax itself? A tax on earnings or on wealth? Most billionaire earnings are not salary and most billionaire wealth is not cash.

                  I could keep going for years but I want to see how you deal with just those problems, for starters.

                    You could keep going for years? Your hyperbolic bullshit is part of the problem. It’s allowed you to give up without trying.
