Comment on Income Tax Is Theft

• sahin@lemmy.world ⁨6⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

  Start by taxing everything above 10M dollars, then spread wealth control to all people, than start taxing wealth, not work because if you don’t tax wealth it will again cumulate and we will have to start over.

    The fuck do you mean by “wealth control”?

    Are you referring to UBI?

    It sounds like what youre sctually arguing for, is an asset cap. Where any property above a certain cap goes to the government.

    If the cap is 10M, how do we fund UBI, infrastructure and emergency services once evryone is below that cap?

      Wealth control means giving them the wealth, and not owning by the government. Because when the government owns everything, that means the people in government become rich.
      Why does, not taxing moving money end public funding? Okay, it can be 2%, and this is enough.

        Because eventually everyone is below the “wealth cap”. Which means no-one pays any further tax. Why would anyone accrue more wealth at that point?

        Okay, it can be 2%, and this is enough.

        If we’re taxing everyone, then yes, sounds about right.

        Because when the government owns everything, that means the people in government become rich.

        Are you suggesting we privatize everything?

        Wealth control means giving them the wealth, and not owning by the government.

        Ok, but how do decisions get made?
