Every person in the world with a net worth over $1B USD. Then I'd equally reallocate their money across every human on earth.

[-] KoboldCoterie@pawb.social 54 points 3 weeks ago

Rather than re-allocating their money across every human on earth, why not allocate it inversely proportional to the net worth of the recipient (and maybe also local currency conversion rate), to uplift the poorest folks?

Could probably choose a lower number, too - say, $100M. Nobody needs anywhere remotely close to that.

The economics of unlucky Mario Party spaces

[-] bratwurstest@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah 100M feels right. Also, wealth is usually tied up in non liquid assets, and it makes no sense to either force liquidation even if it crashes the value, or divide ownership equally among 9 billion people. Each asset needs to be re-allocated on a case by case basis. Like, the private international bridge in Detroit, it's much more valuable as a single asset than the steel scrap it could be sold for.

I’d rather make sure everyone has everything they need for at least basic life. Healthcare, education, infrastructure to name a few. Food for schools. I know a lot of countries already have this. But many don’t even have access to clean water. Ideally worldwide. And throw corrupt politicians and military overlords in there. Although many of them would be counted in the >$1b. Get rid of the religious wackjobs and maybe we could start progressing as a species.

That's just gonna drive up inflation. Instead, invest that into better farms, industries, businesses, and schools that provide services at-cost or free. Or just use the assets left by those guys for the public good, they're already set up.

Another black hole. I just wanna see what happens you know?

[-] MajorasTerribleFate@lemmy.zip 14 points 3 weeks ago

They just merge. They're just really really dense concentrations of mass-energy, not extradimensional portals.

More black holes

[-] gedaliyah@lemmy.world 19 points 3 weeks ago

Trick question. Time dilation means nothing ever actually enters a black hole. It just keeps getting infinitesimally close.

I'm not that scientifically literate, but isn't that just from the perspective of an outside observer?

The Unsellable Elephant that thw other guy just got on his weird application survey question.

[-] godsammitdam@lemmy.zip 15 points 3 weeks ago

The republican party. Aka modern day fascists.

Maybe the DNC and establishment neoliberals too, who ushered in fascism.

The human compulsion to invent religions.

[-] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 10 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

I had the opportunity some "time" ago and I chose to send our entire universe into a black hole. Now we are all stuck here, infinitely reliving the same existences and timelines. My bad.
