@darrigomelanie.bsky.social the top is already defended against income tax like this. They pay themselves a salary of $1 (taxed), then take out millions in loans (untaxed) so they can buy their yachts. When they're dead the bank gets the money back from their estate. No pesky taxation involved. #BuyBorrowDie

@[email protected] The problem is universal - not for the USA, or EU, Or G7/G20/... That problem exists everywhere... Despite propaganda by social darwinism fans there is no country where people who ain't got #RoboWealth are socioeconomically forced to do #WageWork or get evicted and starved to death, with maybe those completely incapable and living in care homes being exempted.

@Krautreporter ich bin ja eher dafür alle #Einkünfte gleich stark zu besteuern, egal ob #Kapitalertrag oder #Lohnarbeit!

Beide sollen unter dieselben #Steuern und !Sozialabgaben fallen - ohne Ausnahmen.

Ferner muss #BuyBorrowDie als Masche verboten werden und entsprechende #Steuervermeidung verboten werden.
