That should simply be illegal. We need to have an upper limit wealth bracket.
And if it means people like Musk, Bezos and Zuckerberg leave the country over it, good.

But then those JOB CREATORS (who just laid off TENS of THOUSAND of US Employees) would LEAVE!
Leaving the country would be fine but making such tax laws a requirement to join certain economic groups or maintain trade relations would be even better. Not saying it's realistic but I can dream.
We can all dream. None of this is realistic, unfortunately.
What does Putin have on Elon the CyberCuck? It’s always something sexual with rightwingers so my guess is that he’s a pedophile.
He's accused others of being pedophiles apropos of nothing, so that should tell you the answer.
He also has a weird obsession with producing as many children as possible, but has no good relations with any of them. Also very telling. At best, he just sees them as genetic extensions of himself, not actual human beings with autonomy.
Like when he accused the diver in the Thailand cave incident of being a pedophile, completely unprovoked.
putin doesn't have anything on trump or elon, they're all just fascist cunts who see all other human beings as their slaves to be used and disposed of as they wish. it really is as simple as that.
Maybe, but the intersection of this group and certain plane trips to a certain island is suspicious.
it could not possibly matter less, you are looking for a conspiracy, where the end result is precisely the same, degradation and destruction of the free world, and death and enslavement of it's people. you are looking for needles, when it's the haystack that's gonna smother us all. it couldn't matter less. for fucks sake.
Weird take.
People can care about and discuss more than one thing at a time.

Some would say we need a french solution to the oligarch problem.
Ouais!
How does musk make money? Do any of his stocks pay dividends? Does he get a salary from his companies? Or are they taking about increase in stock value?
Yes
Funny enough, this comment is correct because it's all of the above lol.
