Do people legitimately not understand that going after middle managers while billionaires exist is fucking stupid? And that the billionaire class would love that to be the diving line because that greatly increases the amount of people on their side. There’s not many billionaires, start at the top and work down. Starting at the bottom and working up is so stupid of an idea I struggle to give people benefit of the doubt on why they’d think this was a good idea or try to promote it.

    Let’s say you made $50k/year. It would take you 20,000 years to make a billion. Let’s say you make $1m/year. It would take you 1,000 years to make a billion. A billion is a dumb, immoral amount, and we have humans with hundreds of them, in theory. If you make a billion dollars, whatever earnings after should be taxed at 100%. It’s not “socialist” to make this claim. Rather, it’s inhuman to argue the opposite.

    Then why are “middle managers” vanguarding “billionaires”?
