The reason why a reverseLottery for the #extremelyWealthy is needed, is because it introduces #uncertainty - or "Constructive Ambiguity".

If everything #tax related is 'set in stone' so to speak, the extremely wealthy will hire the best #taxLawyers to go up to the thresholds of what is "#legal".

By introducing a #SlidingScaleOfUncertainty, those #perverseIncentives start to go out the window.

It just won't be worth playing these myopic #taxAvoidance tricks.

If a #billionaire doesn't pay at least 50% in tax, but #laundersIdentity through #philanthropy, they should go into a database. At random one (or 2%) of these #billionaires will have to pay 70% of their yearly #revenue in that country in tax or be #brokenUtp.

Our namesake, #DickSmith, as part of his #FairGo movement wanted the #extremelyWealthy to pay they way.

He called for more #transparency on tax returns – to shame those #greedy, wealthy few.

We knew that #PeakOil would rear its head eventually but the way they are using the virus to build #apartied is dishonest.

They likely saw what happened in #France with the #YellowVests and they thought, better to use a proxy like #covid. Also was a convenient scapegoat to raid people's #superannuation, last year.

It also means the #extremelyWealthy, #celebrities and #MICIMATT can still fly. If we declared scarce oil then, everyone would need to ration energy use.

#neoFeudalism

From what we can tell, its #PeakOil for the 99% with #travel unaffected for the #corporatists and #extremelyWealthy 1%.

Many of the people who could afford to leave #NY or #London, for example, have left. They appear to have gone to less populated regions and #islands.

Just one of the reasons why we say #overdevelopment is bad news. It allows the…1/5

Pick your machine that will work for you.

The #extremelyWealthy have picked killerDrones and have average people training them courtesy of #hCaptcha. They worship #theBeautyOfTheirWeapons.

People have used machines for hundreds of years. We need to decide what technology is for us and what is for them…

And we better not take too long about it.

Our choices are #AI and #walledGardens that enslave us, or #bitcoin and #libreSoftware to empower us.

Have people worked out that the extremelyWealthy are now just buying #bitcoin every time money is printed for them?

The only difference between how an elite and how a pleb buys bitcoin is that the pleb stores their keys unencrypted on a server owned by the #extremelyWealthy.

Later when elite steal your coins they will blame it on "#hackers".

Tell your friends to be very careful.

The 2nd episode of this is really over the top with #KeynesianEconomics, which abuses the environment like nothing we had seen before, and helped fund the rise of #Germany in the 1930's.

#Keynesianism is #deathcult stuff. People crow about it today under the label, #ModernMonetaryTheory (#MMT). Be super wary of them. The fact is we are living under MMT already, and it serves the #extremelyWealthy and well-connected. The #MMTPushers pretend that we don't have this, because…1/2

Go and read #198fucking4 now, please.

Our #extremelyWealthy are getting paid to lie, cheat, steal, murder on a daily basis and they are writing the laws to enable this. They are raiding you and your #children's future, for #hedonistic #power.

JFK to 911 Everything Is A Rich Man's Trick

Authoritatively written and narrated by Francis Richard Conolly, the film begins its labyrinthine tale during the era of World War I, when the wealthiest and most powerful figures of industry discovered the immense profits to be had from a landscape of ongoing military conflict. The film presents a persuasive and exhaustively researched argument that these towering figures formed a secret society by which they could orchestrate or manipulate war-mongering policies to their advantage on a global scale, and maintain complete anonymity in their actions from an unsuspecting public. Conolly contends that these sinister puppet masters have functioned and thrived throughout history - from the formation of Nazism to the build-up and aftermath of September 11.

2/2…#environmentalVandalism, #nuclearEnergy (note we mine #uranium here in Australia), #GhostCities, #overdevelopment, #pollution… and much more.

We lamented these and other abuses and the #extremelyWealthy labelled us #racist or flatly ignored us, rather than reducing #Australia's dependence on China. Now many smooth-talking #westerners have been booted out of China and #HongKong and they want you on their side.

Keep this firmly in your mind.

You are being played by the wealthy yet again.

Those in positions of power cannot engage with those people who know the truth about them. They would rather throw them money to do nothing than attempt to employ them in any meaningful way.

People who understand the #totalitarian nature of the #corporateState are dangerous and cannot be allowed to interact with the #extremelyWealthy.
