Billionaires should not exist. You don't get to be a billionaire without exploiting people - for that matter once you get over about 10M you're probably stepping on people, or exploiting systems, in order to continue growing your wealth. And why, exactly? It's a sickness that gets worse the richer someone gets. It's been studied and confirmed that people who have excessive wealth convince themselves that they deserve it, they earned it individually, and that they are special and more valuable than others. So instead of riding off into the sunset, they feed their addiction by buying outsized and unearned power in order to shape the laws so that they can make more money. Just fuck off already - you won at capitalism, now get the fuck out of the way and stop screwing over everyone else and making our lives miserable.

Beyond 100M we should just take it all for the state. 100% tax rate. If you want to keep earning beyond that, then great, you will have the glory of contributing to the public good.

But since billionaires have convinced idiots to advocate against the idiots' own interest, and argue that the billionaires can't be constrained in any way, then this will never happen in the current social context. So next best thing is to do as Bill says. Put the fear of God into them.

Bill Burr's project to turn every mansion into Luigi's Mansion

Yeow, going French Revolution on this one. I don't mind wealthy people, but they cannot continue to fuck around with income distribution.

waow..

Incidentally, if anyone out there works as a PA or driver or something to one of these billionaires, tomorrow is "bring your piano wire to work day".

Burr 2028: Fuck This Bullshit

Well, that is a bit excessive.
Rabid dogs are put down because there is no cure for their disease, and they cannot be controlled, and their very existence will bring harm to others and...

Nevermind.

Good. Need more of this.

I do think he's quite wealthy though....

I used to like Bill Burr. Now I love him.

Thiel should be the first to go, that asshole has been making the rounds recruiting billionaires for a takeover for years

Imagine if we gave hoarders the same status we give wealthy people.

Like you're invited over for dinner.

You get to the door and ring the bell. They yell, "come in." You push the door open against 10000 stacked news papers pushing back at you. You're instantly hit with the smell of animal feces and urine. You unironically say, "wow, so decadent." You climb over a pile of furniture and to get to a small clearing in with a couch and a coffee table covered in clutter. You tell your host, "So much stuff, I'm so jealous, you truly possess all the worlds material goods." They heat up some discount canned ravioli on a hot plate because the only place in the entire house you can habitate is that small clearing with the couch.

After you finish your fine dining experience you leave and you realize you never once saw any animals.

Hoarding is a disease. Doesn't matter if it's useless garbage or the idea of a pile of money you'll never use.
