@ejbudbb8@Micahbul111@NYCMayor people who have more money get more political power, so what gets passed in DC is only for the rich, and it creates a cycle of this. Not to mention the underpaid workers in sweatshops making products for wealthy companies, and the effects on the environment.
@ejbudbb8@Micahbul111@NYCMayor The original tweet talks about billionaires being taxed. Look up how much Elons companies payed last year in taxes. Billionaires being able to find loopholes with these things only increases the wage gap, leaving millions to spend their entire wage to even survive
@ejbudbb8@Micahbul111@NYCMayor The system is set up so immense wealth is built on exploitation, nothing to do with country or whether it’s a “random dude”. Yes more effort should give you a better life to some extent, but not getting a trillion dollars at the expense of the lower class.
@ejbudbb8@mattvanswol@elonmusk Ok everything you just said is unrelated to your original argument, which was why aren’t people made about this but they were mad about Floyd, which I answered
@ejbudbb8@mattvanswol@elonmusk It literally doesn’t matter how much of a “scumbag” Floyd was, it is the police’s responsibility to deescalate situations to the best of their ability. Of course there’s more outrage over someone entrusted by the government murdering someone than a criminal who will be prosecuted
@ejbudbb8@mattvanswol@elonmusk It’s not the same though. George Floyd and Nowack are not the same. Although they are both very tragic, one was killed by a random criminal, while one was killed by a government-employed police officer
@ejbudbb8@jackunheard Well yeah trump is our president the other guy is just a random guy. Obviously I would expect better behavior from the guy whose hands are country is in
