When the faq will he lose everything? I want him to be homeless, poor.
That will never happen. For these people “being poor” still means having a shit ton of cash.
All muskyboy’s companies could collapse today and he’d still have millions and millions in a bank somewhere.
The only way this person, and billionaires like him, will feel any consequences is if they are dragged to a fucking guillotine and served justice medieval style.
Guillotine was a renaissance thing really. In medieval times they were more into the gallows.
That is a frequently asked question.
You will be waiting a long time….
He’s still gaining faster than he could ever lose. His entire support structure would have to fall.
ICE detention.
Thats… not really on the cards.
The answer is when enough people get tired of them hoarding everything…
Gluttony was always greed, and the stories about dragons sleeping on gold were just allegories for people like Elmo.
We need to stop acting like this is a new problem and we don’t know how to fix it.
It’s human variation, some people are wired to do anything for as many resources as possible. Which is fine as long as we get them treatment instead of giving them the keys to the planet.
All we gotta do is stopping letting the wealthy make all the decisions, because they’ll keep deciding that they should have more of the money.
Sure but Musk will never be homeless and poor.
France used to have kings bro…
Kings with so much money they not only funded but sent their own seasoned commanders across an ocean to fund a revolution against their rival just so they couldn’t have it.
You think a week before the first head came off that the average French citizen believed one day the monarchy would be dissolved?
Like, none of this is new, we just need to look at it on a timescale measured in centuries and not just since we were old enough to remember.
The wealthy don’t have to control the government, and they don’t even have to be wealthy if the rest of us don’t want them to be. That’s how modern wealth works, it’s 1’s and 0’s. If the next US government says “that’s mine or your cut off from US banking”. They’re gonna fucking transfer that money, be ause it’s not even the banks to begin with.
We have an absolute shit ton of options to work with

I workout, eat healthy, avoid alcohol and drugs all in an effort to live long enough to see these assholes punished somehow, someway.
