The fact that we even have billionaires (and they should not be a thing. The notion of a trillionaire is even more fucking atrocious) is probably why donvict and elon are assuming power right now.
Without the broligarchs and their thumb heavily on media, both "legacy" and not, do you think there would be so very many stupid people willing to vote for the convicted felon?
Say it with me: Billionaires should not exist.
Decamillionaires should not exist as long as there is still poverty anywhere in the world.
Bullets don't care about your net worth
Drones are extremely cheap.
Public trillionaires
Trillionaires almost certainly already exist. There are many people and families who do not publicly report their net worth. Putin is a good example.
Shopping list for this year:
-
AR-15
-
Any 9mm pistol
-
Semtex
-
Military surplus gear
-
Toyota Tacoma
Good luck on number 3

Xplosives was a illegal german forum with Germans biggest explosives community. There is some well dangerous knowledge. Produce it yourself.
(Moreover, this is not an invitation to do so. On the contrary, I strongly advise against it. Above all, you should never look for the forum at archive.org (or alternatives). You may be able to find all the instructions there to synthesize everything you need from commercially available goods, including for other end products.)
Can I reverse engineer it?
Bro! But capitalism uplifted the most amount of people out of poverty than any other system right? Right?
Let's go Bezos!! We finna hit that big 1 trill real soon
Mentally unwell hoarders
They should get therapy rite?
I can't remember where I heard this but apparently there are therapists for very rich people.
The therapist was on a podcast I think and discussing what they talk about.
Basically all rich people fear not having enough money. No matter how rich they get, they fear and obsess over not having enough money.
I thought it was interesting. These are people richer than God and they always want more.

These are direct results of the government's failure to govern. The whole purpose of government is to regulate.
Billionaire wealth should have immediately been taxed at the highest historical levels. Now we're past the tipping point and have to simply endure living in an empire as it crumbles around us, while masses of rubes cheer their oppressors.
Absolutely obscene.
Every developed nation should tax these motherfuckers' entire assets at 99%. If they want to flee with all of their money to Honduras or Haiti or something, let them enjoy that paradise.

When money is used in society as security for basic rights like a home, food and clean water, healthcare, political representation in government, then people hoarding wealth at the detriment of others are responsible and shouldn't be surprised when those same people they oppress become violent.

I just wanna say that Zimbabwe had trillionaires before it was cool.
I mean, there is a way to cure billionaires and prevent trillionaires. Several cures, actually, some of which are likely more palatable than others.
