This is the proof that you can tax wealth. Usually, you say 'Tax wealth' and the corporations go, 'If you raise taxes, we'll leave.' To which, my response has always been, 'Off you fuck, then, and good luck taking the land, workers, and consumers with you. Putin has proved that they can't. This is why he's dangerous. There's probably more in this than the war, although it's hard to compare them. Workers in the west are absolutely not supposed to understand this, hence the state of Western journalism.

Exactly, if companies leave the market they create a niche that will be filled by somebody else. It's really that simple. And I completely agree that western media works really hard to make workers think that they need the parasite class while they're the ones who actually produce things.
