You see a lot of this coming from the rich and their lap dogs. But its never not been bullshit. Pick any country you want in the world. Force Amazon, for example, to pay its full share in taxes. The muppets will say “But then Amazon will leave, taking all those jobs with them!”. So… they would leave a space in the market, right? So someone else would come along and replace them. You can apply this to any industry that tries to scare people with “but X would leave”. Who cares? Theres always going to be someone looking to make money. And being able to make a fuck load of amazon money would be quite awesome. And thats even with paying fucking taxes.
And as for individuals threatening to leave X country, fuck um. We dont need them sucking up all the money anyway.
There needs to be an overhaul in our various societies. Its 2025, and the idea of billionaires in a world where children still starve to death is disgusting. No one needs billions. Hell, no one needs millions. The world, if we could all agree, should limit personal wealth to 100m. Thats it. Once you start earning, through any means, that puts your wealth, in any form, above that number, you pay a 100% tax rate. Or, you can just fucking retire, and let the next generation earn their fair share.
The poor are the majority. And the rich and powerful dont fear us nearly enough…

Imagine being upset that the freeloader sleeping on your couch and eating all the food in your fridge without contributing anything leaves.
