@vicfroh #altText4you screenshot of a threads post by stevens_bad_advice:
"Fun Fact, if billionaires got shot as often as school children, we'd run out of billionaires in 2 months."
There's a picture of Nintendo's Luigi (not part of the threads post)

@vicfroh There's nearly a thousand of them, and, according to gunviolencearchive.org, schoolchildren are killed at a rate of "only" about one a day in the US, so 3 years.

@vicfroh if that's the rule then it would create an incentive for them to ensure that school children aren't being shot. hmmmm. win/win?

who says billionaires won't cooperate. just need the right motivation.

Sounds like a plan to me.

@vicfroh But if we run out of billionaires, who's gonna sell those guns to the shooters?

@vicfroh

I'd stuff the ballot box, if this were on the Ballot.

@vicfroh to make sure you don't create more billionaires you should distribute the money evenly among the 10000 poorest people
Show threadTribeofMaMay 21
@vicfroh do the billions go whoosh-poof? wouldn't some other people get those billions and become, urmm... billionaires?
Show threadRihards OlupsMay 21
@TribeofMa @vicfroh Yeah, that would have to go in public transport, education and public spaces.
Show threadTribeofMaMay 21
@richlv @vicfroh I get that... But shooting them would activate a bunch of heirs.
Show threadRihards OlupsMay 21
@TribeofMa @vicfroh "No heirs > 10 millions" or something :)

@richlv @vicfroh oh, ok then... 😉

@vicfroh Billionaires are all about "optimizing processes," so I'm sure they could help us finish that job even faster.

Is there a GoFundMe for this?
Show threadFranklinMay 21
@vicfroh to me, this says a lot more about how there are so many more children than billionaires than about the frequency of shootings. It is funny though

@vicfroh If billionaires were regularly being shot, we’d have the best and safest anti-gun laws in place within days.

@vicfroh Easy fix: give every schoolchild a billion dollars.

@vicfroh someone’s gotta inherit the money
Show threadKaren E. Lund 💙💛May 22

@vicfroh Billionaires like to think their money puts them at the head of any line, and the top few like to claim they are *the* richest. Let's put that in place... wealthiest of the wealthy first. After a couple of weeks, a pause.

Watch the remaining billionaires donate their money, build hospitals and schools in poor countries, electrify entire Native reservations, etc. Watch heirs announce plans to give away most of the money.

Recalibrate. Restart.

@vicfroh quite witty, but billionaires have heirs. Some of them will be school children. 😶‍🌫️

I prefer the guillotine. It's the classic method of dealing with the oligarchs.
