Zohran Mamdani says 'I don't think we should have billionaires'

Zohran the destroyer of billionaires
They could just stop impeding progress and let the working class have things like healthcare and a living wage. Guess that's too much to ask and they would prefer guillotines?

Yes, that is the word I like.
I don't think we should have any sort of criminal. Murderers, rapists, billionaires.
There should be a tax that ramps up more and more the closer you are to be worth 1 billion dollars. If you are worth 999.999 million 100% of your income is taxed so you never reach 1 billion. And guess what? Your quality of life will not be affected in any way whatsoever.
We can give them "would have been dollars" so they can still do their pathetic dick measuring contests

He's right. Let's see if people could live off 999 million in assets.
there goes my dream of personally owning an EUV lithography machine
How much do those cost?
150 to 380 million dollars
It's not that we shouldn't have billionaires. Its that we have billionaires when we have people living on the streets because the rent is so ridiculous. Its that we have people dying on the streets because they cannot afford health insurance. The gravy on the shit-fest is that billionaires are actively bribing the politicians to prevent those policies from being implemented. That is the textbook recipe for guillotines.
All of these are reasons why we shouldn't have billionaires, though.
I mean, I agree. It's very bad out there.

Never heard of him. He's apparently going to be the next Mayor of NYC, if you haven't either.
