@PCOwen_a@ytk_matsuda Yet all the Technocrats and American Oligarchs, who built their wealth by being the best at Capitalism, are all suddenly proposing UBI and, effectively, socialism/Communism. *totally believable* 😉
@IceNineLeafs The team is still getting accustomed to his deception - so sometimes they aren’t expecting to receive his laser beam precision passes - but they’ll get used to it and increase their success rate on his elite playmaking.
As of Q2 2026, Federal Reserve data shows that wealth in the United States is heavily concentrated at the top, with the top 1% of households holding 32.5% of the country's total wealth, while the bottom 50% hold just 2.3%.
Top 10% owns the vast majority of corporate stocks (about 93% as of recent Fed/Consumer Finances reporting) and accounts for over two-thirds of collective net worth.
Top 0.1%: Controls approximately 15% of the nation’s total wealth.
But, yeah, they’ll all start sharing it as soon as everyone’s jobs are replaced by AI.
Real wealthy people don’t earn income. Their wealth increases because the vast value of their assets increase. They take out loans against those assets, and never pay off the loans. If they’re American, after they die, the asset's tax value resets to its market value (meaning no capital gains taxes are paid), and their estate pays off the debt. Zero taxes paid. It’s called “Buy, Borrow, Die”. Look it up.
