#howtogetfilthyrich @Channel4 doc by @garyseconomics poses an economic and moral question. Should we tax billionaires properly? It’s been a troubling watch but hopefully more people see this, and push our government to answer yes!
Just sharing this now — because once you see #HowToGetFilthyRich on Channel 4, you’re going to want to sign it. It’s time to tax wealth, not work. Add your name and help make wealth taxes the first item on the new PM’s list. https://t.co/WGlGZKpa73 via @38degrees

Hey @thetimglanfield . Not sure what documentary you watched. Gary was literally at a loss for words and was owned in this segment. “Stevenson does not shy away from those who disagree with his views. “ #FilthyRich #HowToGetFilthyRich
Listening to Gary Stevenson (@garyseconomics) last night on his documentary (#HowToGetFilthyRich), trying to grift the audience with his whole schtick about "how a £20k deposit isn't enough to buy a home anymore" without explaining why, was brutal on the ears and the senses.
So let me explain the housing situation in London. The same logic can be extrapolated across much of the country.
London has around 3.85 million homes.
London has around 9.1 million people, with the population growing by roughly 90,000 to 100,000 people a year on average.
Since 2018, NET international migration has added roughly 800,000 to 1.1 million people.
Now ask yourself:
Did London build hundreds of thousands of additional homes at the same pace?
Answer: No.
Why?
Because under current conditions, it isn't fucking realistically achievable.
London has only ever come close to building around 90,000 homes a year once before and that was in the 1930s, under completely different economic, political and planning conditions.
To build 100,000 homes a year now, London would need to complete roughly 1,923 homes every single week from foundation to finish. Yet, in recent years, London has only managed to deliver around 34,000 to 41,000 homes annually.
If demand rises faster than supply, housing becomes scarcer.
If housing becomes scarcer, prices & rents rise.
This isn't ideology.
It isn't left or right.
It isn't fucking complicated despite what Gary fucking tells you.
You CAN'T fucking increase demand year after year while restricting supply and expect affordability to improve when that level of demand was already impossible to meet.
Economics doesn't negotiate with politics and maths doesn't give a shit who you fucking vote for.
If more people were economically literate, they'd understand why we're in this position. Instead, too many people listen to Gary and buy into an economics and politics of envy that repeatedly rewards dreadful economic & social policy, then refuse to take any responsibility for the consequences of their choices.
Lot of larpers getting angry about #HowToGetFilthyRich tonight eh?
And such crossovers with the other things they get upset about too...
@garyseconomics - wealth tax is Dreamland stuff and simply won't work.
A capitalist economy is designed by capitalists for capitalists.
The government is to blame - NOT the rich.
And tax does NOT fund Government spending... EVER.

Andy Burnham is about to become Prime Minister.
I made a website to help you email your MP to urge Andy Burnham to make a commitment to "Tax Wealth Not Work" as he takes over Labour's leadership.

@garyseconomics Great show on @Channel4 . The part with the doctor reading out all the services that have been cut was so powerful.
Any left-wing politician running for office should quote him verbatim.

Watching #HowToGetFilthyRich on @Channel4 . @garyseconomics brilliantly exposes the literal greed of super rich,the impact of 2% tax on their wealth would barely make a dent on their lives,but apply 2% additional tax on the working class,it's the difference between life & death
The neoliberal economy isn't working.
You can't have 'growth' when everyone is skint
because everyone is getting screwed by the neoliberal economy.

@Sevilla5050 What #GaryStevenson #HowToGetFilthyRich has revealed is how desperate the rich are to control the narrative with their paid fake account troll farms in full throttle right now.
The only suitable solution to reduce the wealth and poor devide is that the wealthy pay more tax. To help equalise. The system especially those who are extremely wealthy for brief while. There are too many people seeking Wealth which creates Greed. #HowToGetFilthyRich
Andrew Henderson just owned Gary Stevenson. Literally silenced the guy. Just fantastic stuff. #HowToGetFilthyRich #FilthyRich
Why didn't Samuel justify charging £12K for his courses? I'm not impressed with how he ended the interview and walking off like when a criminal is caught on camera #HowToGetFilthyRich #GaryStevenson

Gary worried because folk can't afford to own their own home or rents.... Errrr The answer was in front of you Gary when you visited your old school.

Gary Stevenson doesn’t understand personal responsibility and sales.
And yet, this asshat who hustled himself into becoming successful by working at a big bank gets a platform to guilt trip successful people. #FilthyRich #HowToGetFilthyRich
