No we don't. Thet pay us, and with that they own most of us. Most people just want a salary, if that means they have to kill poor people, that is what they do
I'm guessing he was trying to say how to educate, not what. Not every human being learns in the same way and different people need different teaching methods.
Even so, I'd limit that to a list of scientifically proven methods
Have tax brackets as we know them, but more brackets with one final bracket: As soon as you reach, say, 10 million dollars in net worth, taxes on income and anything that increases your wealth go to 100%. Anything over it also gets taxes 100%
This way nobody gets to be filthy rich.
Governments get huge influxes of funds that they then use for a large socialist system. Universal free healthcare, free education for anyone that wants it. Free housing where needed, universal basic income, you name it
Governments can fund independent news foundations that in their turn fund news organizations with the most important rule that news always must be as factual and unbiased as possible
Since nobody can be filthy rich, or dirt poor, its hard to bribe people because people are fine with the money they have
Worried about people hiding wealth? Make all financial data public. All of it. If nobody can go over 10 mil anyways, who cares that it's public
Since nobody can be filthy rich, nobody can be filthy powerful, which is good as power is the root of all evil for humans. Want to wage a war? Good luck with that without power to push for that
Since nobody will be dirt poor, most crime will disappear. Scams will disappear because incentives for those things will be gone
Most people would never hit the line, and they'd be fine. The few workaholics under us will be able to get "rich" and hit that line:
10 mil gets you a very nice house and car and some investment money for a company maybe
Want a bigger company? Get more investors. This practically goes to the point where companies are owned by the employees
Governments can also fund independent investment foundations where needed for bigger companies but I'd keep companies limited in size too, let's say 1 billion dollars in net worth max.
This way, no powerful companies that will fuck over customers. No powerful companies to lobby governments to fuck over the people. You will no longer have these too big to fail companies either. Better 5000 1 million companies than one 5 billion dollars company
We can even keep capitalism as we currently have it because capitalism is basically free trade. Trade all the crap you want, its fine, as we now have simple basic limits to the system. No need for changing systems ehatbeill guaranteed cause shitstorms
Yes, the 10 mil is rather arbitrary, and should be subject to inflation and so on, but you get the basic point. I'm sure an economist could come up with better limits, and I'm sure we'll need to add some details here and there, bit the basics is simple.
The hardest part of this is that you'll probably need to implement this world wide all at the same time, and you'll probably want to have all countries using the same currency (which would also simplify the crap out of so many things)
Worst feeling: its 5:30 and you have 30 minutes left which leaves you wondering for 15 minutes if you should try to get back to sleep or already get up, and when you finally give in and try to sleep again, the alarm rings
And yeah, thosbtech COULD be great but humans generally are the reason why we can't have nice things. This technology could (and I'm sure, one day will) change the lives of blind people, but even then I want to be sure that anything recorded never leaves the glasses. It would have to be hardware that is on the one hand very visible while recording you and on the other hand should not have ways to take the data off. It definitely could not be made by a company like meta that is run by a bunch of lying cheating fucks that will do anything for a dollar

I've read papers talking about co2 warming the planet from back in the 1890's somewhere.
We've known this for multiple generations and even a century later we stubbornly refuse to stop co2 production because shareholders.
Fuck humanity, I guess
So the exact same tactics as the Cheeto in chief, then
Don't forget about the free slave labour!
You're missing the point here..
Well, since all new protections from 2008 have already been shredded, what would you think?
It would be so funny that the economy crashes, making poor people poorer and rich people richer!
Because that is what happened in the past few crashes. So I'm not entirely sure when and where I should start laughing about this
You misspelled multiplication

World wide wealth caps, implemented though taxes

How much wall does one tonne of concrete give you? Seems like you need tonnes of sugar to properly do this

Well at least assholes like him will speed up the process of banning these perv glasses. Silver linings, I suppose
I wasn't aware that Israel is part of Europe, thanks for this geography lesson!
Natuurlijk is dot racisme, maar Sophie straat is ook racistisch, beiden zijn fout.
So, again
Every time antisemitism comes up these days it comes basically from the Israeli government, the IDF, or some Israeli organization.
Seriously, Israel, the IDF and these organizations are by far the biggest generators and spreaders of antisemitism
Taco taco, burrito
And yet another site to blacklist
When the economy crashes, and it will, rich peoole won't suffer, they will enrich themselves even more. Its always the poor that suffer
