  • GET RID OF BILLIONAIRES

    Create a society where you ban extreme wealth.

    You allow people to gain wealth, as much as they want but you create an upper ceiling … like say 100 million. Beyond that, any further wealth you create is just sent to the government as taxes and spent on public services and infrastructure and on other less fortunate people.

    Wealth is also not inherited and when you die, a small part of your wealth is passed to your descendants but the majority is given over to the government to again be used for taxes, infrastructure and public services.

    Humans will always be greedy bastards and there will always be people who will game the system in their favour for whatever psychotic or manic reason they have (similar to people with hoarding mentalities or people who collect cats or bottle caps) … in this suggested society, people would still be allowed all the freedoms to fulfill their fantasies or manias within a controlled environment and not to the point where they are degrading all of humanity in the process.

    UNIVERSAL BASIC INCOME

    And as you create an upper ceiling of wealth, you also create a lower floor of poverty … you use all that extra money and institute Universal Basic Income and allow every able bodied human an equal opportunity to become as much of a greedy bastard as they want and start to gain their own wealth. Or they use their good start in life, generate a bit of wealth, get an education and find the cure for cancer. Imagine if we had thousands or even millions of scientists who no longer have to worry about making rent and instead spend their time trying to find cures for things or finding new solutions to the energy crisis or environmental problems like global warming.

    Instead … we have a world where we funnel all the wealth of the world to a small group of people who sit on it, defend it at all costs and send humanity to its doom while billions of people either starve, near starve or spend all their time and energy just barely getting by.






  • This is going to be normalized

    If a ‘suspect’ is being approached or threatened by ICE officers or whatever officers … many people will start to think twice about it all.

    • Will you just give up and let them take you away … to prison … with no trial, no law, no recourse … and basically end your life … especially if you are poor and don’t have much to begin with … and no one to help you
    • or do you just go out in a blaze of glory and fight because your life is basically over any way

    This is the reason why laws evolved over the past few hundred years to remove Capital Punishment for many things … if you create laws where you severely punish people for the most minor things … people will eventually figure out that if you are given no choice, no opportunity, no empathy and no chance at proving your innocence - then people will realize that their lives are over.

    Either you give up and let the government take away your life or you stand, fight and die anyway.
