No you don’t understand they sacrifice dozens of kids every years to guns because they need guns to resist tyran- oh… NVM I guess.
If billionaires got shot as often as school children, only billionaires would be allowed to have guns within a week …
“Think of the Children Gun Safety Reform Act”, a 1,000% tax on guns. Guns now cost about $10-100k each.
Two month? I think in less than 2 weeks.
Nah, it would never happen.
We would end up with comprehensive gun control reform before we ran out of our precious billionaires.
win-win, you say
So reduce their numbers and get gun control. What’s not to like?
Americans would finally rise up then.
According to Ray Dalio, you’re right - that is what it will take: revolution or a major war https://youtu.be/BB2r_eOjsPw
Mamma mia
Well, kinda…due to inheritance, it’d kinda be like the Lernaean Hydra.
Isn’t there some depressing statistic about 2nd and 3rd generations losing most of the fortune or at least losing any control over it.
There is, but it’s basically made up to support the notion that it’s very difficult to stay rich. It’s actually very rare for subsequent generations to lose inherited wealth, it just gets partitioned out so there are dozens or hundreds of rich people instead of one disgustingly wealthy individual.
Similar to lottery winners losing everything, it makes a much bigger headline when one loses everything despite it being incredibly uncommon.
went take a chance? ammo maybe cheaper than eggs in the US these days.
Ok so it’s just a math problem, then. Inheritance is taxed and incurs other costs, so there’s some re-distribution. Plus with multiple heirs, the estate may be divided.
So keep shooting for another couple of months. I’m just saying, it’s totally doable, it will just take a bit more effort.
This might be the trickle down we’ve all be promised.
We could handle this in minutes or let it drag on for years.
Most transformative two months the world would ever see
