The focus on the rich is weak leftist crap designed to prevent nodes of power that are independent of the regime. Rich means someone has acquired a lot of currency and assets. Wealth, on the other hand, is access to goods and services. Government bureaucrats, NGO workers, prominent college professors, journos, and other members of the managerial elite can have access to a lot of goods and services without being rich. Instead of "Tax the Rich" it should be "Expropriate the Wealthy", which means liquidating the universities, NGOs, etc as well as the billionaires.
I think you missed my point. Focusing on just the billionaires misses so many other nodes of power. The Senior Executive Service, for example, can have just as much, if not more, access to resources. Inherent to simply taxing the rich is to transfer resources to government bureaucrats. The entire elite managerial class needs to be thrown out.
Reminder that income tax started with the upper 3% of the population being taxed for, at most, 6% of their wealth.
This has seen been expanded to practically every single working American being taxed for, at least, double digits.
Go fuck yourself.
Dude he didn't say anything about taxes. He just wants to eat them.
Welcome to kia! Great first post!
Okay.
How?
Most of them own helicopters, so the Pinochet special would be pragmatic.
Pinochet was himself a "rich". Through corruption in power, no less.
