Dessa är människorna som försöker förinta den vita rasen, göra dina barn trans och din moster lesbisk, samt locka hit invandrare så att de kan stjäla ditt jobb, och SAMTIDIGT leva på dina skattepengar!

Look at these cultural Marxists trying to make your kids trans and uncle gay, making sure to let in immigrants do that they can steal your job and simultaneously live of social welfare!

A crucial difference between aborting non-conscious fetuses and guns is that guns can cause very real lethal harm to conscious people, hence why most civilised nations have decided that your average Joe shouldn't get to own a button that lets you kill people by pointing it at them and clicking

Sry, dollar isn't my native currency. My point is that the people who have more than they need should pay as close to that excess as possible while the people who have less should get their basic needs met, as well as the opportunity to progress societally (free schooling). Right now, money does nothing but pool upwards, which means that society gets more unequal by the minute. This is what we have to stop because historically inequality has been among the worst things a society can have. Look at South Africa for example.

It's about making sure that everyone has as close to equal opportunity as possible, and that nobody is sitting at the top doing nothing for society and creating a dead end for wealth. The only way to achieve this is to force the wealthiest to pay a rather large part of their wealth back to the society that allowed them to amass such wealth and establish infrastructure that supports everybody instead of only the people that can pay.

Society doesn't need ultra rich people to function.

Contrary to popular belief billionaires are not an inevitable result of humanity. They are an inevitable result of the decades of rampant and highly unregulated capitalism masked by a pretty coat of liberalism paint that has been going on since the Industrial Revolution. It doesn't matter how the billionaires get their money on paper, whether by income or by cheating just to not have to support the impoverished. As long as money continues to pool upwards society will get nothing but worse, and the fact that they are actively trying to influence people into thinking this isn't happening is terrifying to me.

If the problem of taxing the psychopaths on the top of the societal pyramid is paperwork then I'm sure it can be resolved somehow.

Surely you must understand that to the billionaires, taking loans to get money and simply receiving the money as income is the exact same thing with the only difference being that he can keep more of it from the rest of us? That's like saying you shouldn't be punished for stealing as long as do a funny dance while doing it. You're still stealing.

Every time you blame the taxman, the CEO gets to pay ever so slightly less to the society that feeds him. This is how felons like trump get into to office.
