@VigilantFox Ill say it again:
"To make everyone equal you need to treat everyone unequal"
Let that sink in.
You rather live in a world were you get treated equal or unequal?
Noone is equal, we are all unique, so why not treat everyone equal instead of trying to make everyone equal?
@geoffkeighley "A modern society who sees everyone as equal"
To see everyone as equal you need to treat everyone unequal.
Would you rather live in:
a world were you get seen as equals but treated unequal
OR
a world were you get treated equal but are seen as unequal
@BernieSanders Cost distrubution (median family):
1973: Salary is spend 14% on groceries and 19% on housing
2026: Salary is spend 8% on groceries and 25% on housing
Both equal 33% of salaries.
Ever thought cost of living went up because we have access to so much more now thn in 1973?
@hartattaque@BalrogCantFly@AndrewYang Are you ok?
Its true they wont help you nor do they care about you.
The rich nor the goverment will solve your problems.
I wish you the best.
@TxJollyRoger@4TaxFairness Dont forget that house, that yacht was build and maintained by payed workers/others.
The money spend "on themselves" puts food on the table for others.
Its a fair trade thousands of workers get money, they get a yacht!
@4TaxFairness Assumption 1:
The rich/employers wont just pass the tax on to the workers or layoff to cover the new costs.
Assumption 2:
Taxing investments wont just shift the investments elsewhere
Assumption 3:
Taxing their wealth wont just move the wealth
Think about it.
@susanabulhawa How is it engineerd when all these young men are voluntarily trying to cross the border?
Explain that.
Maybe just maybe its ppl searching for a better life?
Wonder why we have borders if we dont enforce thm...
@hartattaque@BalrogCantFly@AndrewYang Its actually generosity...
It would be greed if they would not do anything with their wealth...
Spoiler you dont become/stay rich if you dont understand that.
@hartattaque@BalrogCantFly@AndrewYang They are investing their wealth so millions of others can work. They never have cash.
They are redistributing their wealth always.
That yacht was bought, thousands of employees got payed. Thousands of ppl were able to eat cuz of the buy.
Why do ppl never think about this?
@hartattaque@AndrewYang "Rob", you buy something for a certain price that is your choice.
If noone would buy their items it would be very cheap, simple supply and demand.
Think about it
@alc2022 Its honestly not that deep.
Order and law should be upheld.
There are ppl asking for less order and policing however in most cities there are places where its not safe...
Everyone including those asking for this understand that.
So tell me why do ppl dont want order and law?
@mattvanswol@EndWokeness Or goverment buys the stores that go out of busines, ending up completely owning the entire local foodmarket
Costs will increase so either raise taxes or privatise it again
Its not that you couldnt run gov grocery stores, its just which gov spending will you cut for the costs?
