Tax.

Tax them like there is no tomorrow.

Billionaires should simply not exist. Put a cap on total net worth and if you pass that, income tax goes to 100. If your networth goes up anyway because of stocks or whatever, tax that too. Tax stocks, homes, boats, etc.

Enormous wealth should be like the speed of light. The closer you get there, the heavier it becomes to stay there, you need to spend more and more energy to get less and less higher.

This should not be a crazy idea.

You just gotta love that this place is called "liberty", a place where you're free to do whatever you want as look as you only do the things a tiny group of people allow you to do.

The one thing that really REALLY disgusts me beyond anything is just the sheer hypocrisy on the right / conservative side. They break all the rules, they commit all the crimes, and immediately turn around and accuse the "other side" of doing exactly what they just did, and then call themselves "liberty" or " law abiding" or some shit like that. It soooo grinds my gears...

If you're going to be evil, then at least fucking own it. At least call yourself a dictator, at least call yourself a religious terrorist. Say what you want about al Qaeda, but at least they know they're evil and they don't pretend to be a loving sweet group of happy campers.

Not sure if I agree. If you'd do that you'll lose CEO's, not the highly skilled workers that actually do the work..one might wonder howuch would be lost there.

Also, where would they go? Any developed country will have it much, MUCH "worse" for them than the US and the alternative is moving to heavenly places like Russia or China. Good luck with that.

Just to add to this: rockets use a lot of fuel. And with "a lot" I mean that a rocket typically is 90% fuel, 7% rocket, 3% cargo (my numbers may be off a bit, but not by much). The further you want to go the more fuel you need, the heavier you get,the more fuel you need, and so on.

So to move out 100 tonnes of cargo, were going to waste, say 3000 tonnes of fuel, and that is just to get it into orbit. Getting enough speed to get it to the sun would probably literally require exponential amounts of extra fuel, which would require extra fuel rockets to come up, rockets just carrying "a little bit of" fuel for another rocket.

Then on going to the sun: the earth moves at about 30km/s around the sun. To cancel that out, you'd need a rocket capable of reaching 30km/s, which we currently -afaik- cannot. We can't get rocket engines that can eject the burning gasses out at those soeeds, hence we can't reach that speed, hence we can't cancel out 30km/s. We'd need entirely new technology to be able to do that

So much of this reminds me of Yugoslavia in the months leading up to that bloody civil war where neighbor killed neighbors, men, women and children were slaughtered just and only because of their ethnicity

The upcoming weeks will be interesting to say the least

Harris needs to douch more than just help US families. She's either going to rebuild the political system from the ground up or next elections after her will be the last. Dictators are knocking on the door and damn near half of the US is desperately trying to get that door open because they've been brainwashed into believing it's the right thing to do

The entire winner takes all needs to go out the window, it will destroy the country. Electoral college, out the window, it's a stupid idea to begin with. Gerrymandering, out. The supreme Court members should have a 4 years max tenure and requires VERY strict rules to avoid corruption

Concepts like fox news should be prohibited, too. Freedom of speech? Sure, but if you claim to be a news organization you either do your dned best to be honest or you get shut down. Fox news and honesty is like fore and water, it doesn't go together.

Just a few ideas to begin with

Is it? Afaik it very much is not

You're the criminal because you broadcasted my crimes on tv

You have to admit that the dude has a fascinating brain; such gymnastics

So while it sleeps, it still wastes electricity on literally nothing. Gotcha

Fuck your God.

Well, actually there is no god, or gods, but you know, fuck your idea of what a God would be like

Is it? It was always super easy to get anything done and with systems it suddenly got factors more complicated. Port assignment was super easy to do, note the past tense. It now requires systemd and instead of a 15 second config file change and service restart I now need to create and delete files, restart multiple services, God knows what in systems.

Simply put: why? If you make an alternative solution AT LEAST it shouldn't become way more over complicated to get basic tasks done

Absolutely
