So, basically, we’re just living in hell right now.
Comment on A fair punishment for the obscene hoarding of wealth

This isn’t right - this all assumes he gets to keep his money. Now take $1500/month in rent, $200 in food, SS, sales tax, etc.

The et cetera: Shouldn’t be allowed to work overtime either. And they should get taxed more if they work a second job, so only 40 hours per week. Attach ridiculous fees to any attempt at saving money in a bank, can’t have their money earning interest for them. They should also be in a high cost of living part of hell with no public transportation. And they should be forced to buy their own safety equipment. They should have to pay for healthcare out of pocket, no good health insurance. And they should be penalized for aging the same way too, with new billionaires coming in cheaper and forcing them out of their position and making their experience a liability in finding new work. Let’s throw in some inflation to keeps things spicy. An HOA that is constantly fighting them and won’t let them grow food. How about random detentions and beatings for being the wrong shade in the wrong part of hell town, the part they work in. And they should never be allowed to forget for one moment what they had in life and how they squandered it on petty selfish things.

And, it should be treated like a loan, with the interest frontloaded.

$200/week in food. Also through in gas money for his area.

Don’t forget inflation on top of all that!

Lol I saw someone do the math where he was only allowed to keep a penny a day. I mean I don’t think you need to pay rent of eat in hell. You probably just get tortured non stop after doing some awful grueling repetitive work like breaking rocks. That’s better than he deserves.

He has to build up his wealth with post-tax, post-rent money made using minimum wage. Hope he likes rice and lentils

Gotta cap him on the hours every few weeks too. Don’t want him hitting full-time status.
