Imagine it. You wake up and they're gone. Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberge, Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates, Alex Karp (Palantir), The Rothschilds, the people buying all the ram and building the AI data centers, and who the fuck knows how many bankers, private equity firms and Blackrock executives will LEAVE FOREVER!

Where would we be without them?

They wouldnt leave they would just nuke the whole world while hiding in their bunkers and then post-apocalypse force their own offspring to intermarry

Like how epstein wanted to seed the human race with his dna because he thought his own genes were supernatural and if he artificially inseminated hundreds of women and then those offsprings fucked each other he would create some mutated superrace

the government is incompetent and corrupt and doesn't deserve more money. taxing billionaires doesn't solve anything, it's just that you are spiteful towards billionaires for having more than you. and you want to punish them.

No, no, no! The billionaires leaving is a BAD thing! That's why we can't tax them or limit their power in any way, remember? This is MAGA 101.

The simplest way is to simplify the tax laws so there aren't loopholes that can be exploited. On paper Bezos has a salary of like $85k a year, Gates and Zuck both only got paid $1 for a few years because it was tax advantageous to do so. Only downside is if you simplify it the left starts complaining that it hurts the poor.

Imagine you've bought a house a few decades ago for 200.000 moneys. Now the estimated market value of that house is over a million moneys. The government is like dayum son, you've made a lot of gains bro, how 'bout we tax yo gains like 1% each year. So this year yo ass needs to pay 8.000 moneys in taxes on those gains, ye hear me?

No I'm not defending billionaires or even millionaires because most of us will never be that rich and shouldn't vote based on fantasies of what we will never become, but you can see that taxing Richy Rich can get a teeny tiny little bit complicated, no?

That's why you should just seize their money

They should be taxed and who knows how many loopholes they're using to pay little or none at all, but the federal government has to do it. Even if a state tries, as you've seen, the gorillionaires will just flee and hide in some other state to avoid it. When it's federal, if they try to leave the country to get around it while still importing goods or whatever, then you can just tariff them to make up the difference.
>>
>>538283530
They already do that via property taxes if some jew from the city assesses your property at a higer value you immediately get taxed more however that is not the same as taxing capital gains and forcing the mass dump of stocks.

Picture this, some retard future socialist regime says all billionaires have to sell 5% of their stock. Well they are all going to dump their holdings in Vanguard then have their hedge fund in Singapore or UK short Vanguard so they make all that money back.That foreign money is untouchable.

Meanwhile all union pensions plummet because they rely on investments in Vanguard to keep their pensions funded as member contributions are not enough you have to invest that money in the market and fund it with capital gains to avoid inflation.

None of these plans are serious it's just spiteful tards demanding extortion money. If you run the simplest simulation of a billionaire theft tax it falls apart immediately
>>
This is an easy argument to goad the poor. Get them to pay fair wages, that is taxing them.

They pay a disproportionate amount of tax, which all gets wasted on government bullshit. People think we are going to tax the billionaires and then everyone in the country will be given loads of free cash. It will be more of a govt cash grab. Incentivise them to use their money for philanthropy and build and fix shit.
>>
>>538282825

How about just arrest them first and then confiscate all they have?
>>
>>538284304
this lol
the 1% pays like 40% of the taxes in the US and it all goes to wars for israel. when leftoid jews say tax the rich, what they mean is let's get more money to pay for israel's wars

>The simplest way is to simplify the tax laws so there aren't loopholes that can be exploited. On paper Bezos has a salary of like $85k a year,
this and the way they do that is by borrowing against assets and writing off the interest payments. The way to fix is simple, all income treated the same, and no personal write offs for interest ever. But people will bleat about their precious mortgage interest deduction

Raise the wages. It is a tax their businesses and puts more money in the peoples hands. Taxing billionaires wont do much because they wrote the tax laws and creatively dodge it. Any money the government gets wasted usually.

I just discovered we are paying 22 BILLION dollars for battery back up storage for AI facilities. Why is the public footing the bill for this? I was glad to see usaid go, but this is a much bigger line item and only benefits a few dozen people. This is a real outrage.

>>538285783
halting immigration would unironically be the most leftwing policy possible for the working class. If you can't create labor out of thin air, the corporations will be forced to raise wages, in everything from farming to investment banking.
>>
>>538286058
It made me laugh how they made immigration easy to help in a few areas to bring down wages and now they have taken over all the working class jobs and many key small businesses and gone into corporate world. Working class are getting left behind because there are hundreds of people applying for their jobs and people are coming over with money to start businesses to do education. Why the working class have had their employment rights gutted, can barely get any overtime so hard to save up, Now the working class are fucked, doing worse in education, and all opportunities, especially unskilled are turning into a hunger games scenario. Even teenagers are struggling to get the kind of jobs they used to during college to have a bit of spending and saving money.

>>538282825
How can they leave? We own the systems on which they buy and sell stock. What are they gonna do, sell everything and move to China, or something? Their ownership of what makes them rich is totally and completely contingent upon the state allowing them to do so.

This is still too close to a Rube Goldberg machine. This is very much the line of thought behind e.g. Trump's retarded universal tariffs. It's all a song and dance for rightoids to avoid ever having to admit that the results of capitalism are harmful to them. They don't want to admit that they think they should have higher wages and more access to basic services and housing. But because they're so mindbroken by capitalist enculturation, they're not allowed to say any of it -- it breaks their "bootstraps" image of what America and capitalism even are.

I say we just tax them instead. It's simpler. No more loopholes -- flat taxes. No more borrow-buy-die. If you take out a collateralized loan greater than the value of e.g. the median home in America, some percentage of that loan is due as if it were the final transfer. If you gain money, no more freeloading. Pay your taxes.
>>
>>538286850
No this is where the Rube Goldberg comes in - instead of putting money in the hands of labor, you want to put money in the hands of government and then by some miracle it reaches the people. As if government officials are not more corrupt than capital owners. I don't think even Marx himself would dispute the simple equation of supply and demand in the labor force.
>>
>>538282825
Where would they go?
>>
You do realize that even if every billionaire in the world died today that they would just be replaced by somebody else in like a week and the status quo would just continue. Most of the people who become billionaires are pre-approved. It's why they all pretty much have the same philosophies and ideologies. In in other word they are all pretty much ether pro-Israel or neutral at best. Have you ever seen a billionaire who was pro-Palestine or openly anti-Israel. Nope, didn't think so.
