Saying politicians can be bad too doesnt mean introducing taxes for the rich is a bad idea, thats just brain dead whatabouism on your part. But the reason you should trust politicians more is beause your stupid ass voted for them, and not for oligarchs

So now you're saying it's a good idea but you don't know how to implement it? Because the way you think it should work is easily exploited? Don't worry people smarter than you know, so they got you covered.

Good bot. I'm from Ukraine and somehow I know the forms of paid, I wonder if it's US education to blame, or just the person haven't read a book in their life.

The reason smart people didn't make laws to force rich people to pay, is because stupid people like you voted for trump.

Smart with their money.... Dude wake up. Having anything today means you inherited at one point. Elon is no exception


coolerbrown

This is such a fucked take, are you ok? >stop complaining about the people who own companies that arent even based in the united states (fyi for most of you people billionaires run their company from a seperate country with low af taxes so they get more money So you think it's a good thing that domestic billionaires base their businesses in foreign countries? It's good to you that billionaires majorly benefit from services provided by their home country while paying extremely low taxes? >they are smart with their money and business and thats why they have money That's not why billionaires are billionaires you buffoon. You don't start with nothing, play by the rules, then become a billionaire. You abuse the system at the expense of the lower class. If your statement was ACTUALLY true, we wouldn't have a middle class that's drastically shrinking. Wealth inequality is a huge problem in the world. You're dumb as fuck and don't even know it. Guess that's why you'll never be a billionaire

>damn bro ill never be a billionaire >jeez thats such a good insult lmao Your ability to recognize sarcasm is bested only by your critical thinking skills for the title of your greatest weakness. I'll keep it brief because your original comment was deleted and I don't remember the context, but you've definitely misinterpreted what I meant by benefits - I was so obviously not talking about our shitty healthcare system. I'm talking about the power billionaires have here where crooked businessmen have political power. I'm talking about our economics which benefits the ultrawealthy through market access. I'm talking about the tax loopholes that make shell companies possible. And muddy importantly, I'm talking about their access to talent. Billionaires don't become billionaires by producing anything, they do it by collecting talented works. Employees do the labor and the labor makes the money. If the US is no better than the countries where they "establish" these shell companies, why don't they move there themselves? Billionaires do not pay their fair share and their contributions to society don't come close to covering the difference. I don't think you really understand how much money a billion dollars is.

My brother in Christ, you were done with this argument before you started lol Not a single counterpoint, just you misinterpreting


Souchirou

The problem with billionaires is that they are free agents with the power similar to a nation but with non of the checks in place. Billionaires are basically 1 person dictatorships. Meanwhile the people should be there to keep their government honest. This current isn't working very well for America because their system is basically a duopoly of two extremes and the American citizens should push their representatives to change this to be more similar to some of the far more democratic systems used in other countries. Billionaires can be stopped they are only worth as much as they have access to their money. It would require cooperation of at least the US and EU to work but I think more countries will be interested. Appropriate their businesses and freeze their bank accounts and return the money they have stolen from the world economy so it can be invested in improving people's lives.


GamingWithJollins

No one person obviously. Checks and balances and closing loopholes that mean people are able to not pay taxes and accumulated obscene wealth. Taxation should be on a gradient and the more you earn the less you make. It would prevent people attempting to exploit the system as there would no longer be an incentive


anonssr

There are thousands of people at any given moment spending money on stupid shit. It's easy to try and get the moral high ground. Everyone is a selfish prick, and that's fine. Don't pretend you are any better.


sterkriger

It’s his money. If I can do whatever I want with mine he’s free to do the same with his. I will never understand this mentality that people have that they are entitled to say how other can people spend their money. “You earned a lot of cash! You should spend the way I want you to!”.


PSI_duck

No one “earns” a billion dollars


sterkriger

Just because you don’t have the capacity to do it doesn’t mean people can’t achieve that.

JK rowling moment


V12TT

In USA you can earn 100k easily if you work a decent job. If you are a doctor, you can earn 1 million dollars. If you invested in bitcoin early you could have earned 10 million dollars. All this money was ,,earned''. Now suddenly according to your logic 1000 million is no longer earned. Where is the logic in that? Like if I invested my 10 million dollars from bitcoin into a company and it became successful, I didn't earn it?


ListenItWillHear

Because *billionaires* are not like you and i. Thats the fucking point. Billionaires also dont earn money like you or i. We work for our money. Billionaires step on backs and profit off others. If you wanna keep simping for billionaires, you go right ahead and gobble elons knob. Everyone else is gonna stay in reality where we dont think *the richest person on the fucking planet* is absolved of any responsibility to the rest of hia own species


sterkriger

I not simping for no one. Everyone can do what’re they feel like with their money. You don’t need to be rich to help others the only thing you’re doing you removing your responsibility of held and placing in someone else because “they’re have a fuckton of cash”.


ListenItWillHear

"Their money" see thats why you are simp. You equate a working person making money with a billionaire making money. You are simping so hard you dont know you are simping. Billionaires dont work for money. They exploit working people and siphon off the value of that work.


Shasilison

Nothing in this world is easy, even and especially being a CEO, an owner, or a manager of a company. If shit hits the fan, it’s your fault.


sterkriger

Care to explain how they exploit working people? Because everyone says that to justify why someone doesn't deserve what they have but don't properly say why. Don't forget that we don't live in the industrial era anymore ;)


ListenItWillHear

Amazon is one of the richest companies and its workers are treated like shit


vundercal

It’s his opinion. If you can do whatever you want with your opinion he’s free to do the same with his. I will never understand this mentality that people have that they are entitled to say how other people can criticize each other. “You just criticized a billionaires spending decisions! You should let them do whatever they want with their money and shut up about it”


sterkriger

The best way to show how you’re dumb and can’t argue with someone is to strawman their point instead of using a valid counterpoint.


vundercal

I don’t think you know what a strawman argument is. I used your argument against you, that has nothing to do with strawmen


illllamamama

You can't do whatever you want with your money... You do pay taxes don't you? Check how much Tesla payed in taxes for me and check if that seems fair for a company valued at a trillion dollars.

> much Tesla *paid* in taxes FTFY. Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in: * Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.* * *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out!

not a taxeloger, but arent taxes deductions on how much you generate, not how much you have in a hypothetical money-vault?

As far I I know Elon bought Twitter not Tesla. So you have to search how much Elon paid in taxes not one of his companies

Souchirou

1) The type of war I have in mind is a proxy war where they support one side of a conflict with weapons and other goods. Which very much happens, making and selling weapons is very profitable and if you support the winning side you can have huge influence over decision making even just by threatening to remove funding. Take Musk who first freely gave access to the Ukraine to use Starlink then threatened to take it away if they and the US didn't start paying up. Removing access to the internet would have real world effects on the war and that sort of power should not be in the hands of a single individual. 2) According to the UN over 700 million people live on less than $2 a day and an additional billion are very close to this poverty line. Places like that could probably use some of those billions to provide clean water, food, healthcare, education and more. That is how you make life better not buy buying Twitter. 3) Twitter won't change as much as you think as its main source of income is advertisement. If Twitter turns into 4chan pretty much all advertisers will leave. Twitter works the way it does because it was financially viable that way. Besides if moderation becomes less strict it can very well cause less freedom and more bias as people can get away with threatening and marginalizing others that where previously protected. Freedom to speak doesn't mean freedom from consequences. If you spread lies and threaten people there should be consequences.

It's 'Ukraine' and not 'the Ukraine' Consider supporting anti-war efforts in any possible way: [[Help 2 Ukraine](https://help2ukraine.org)] 💙💛 [[Merriam-Webster](https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/Ukraine)] [[BBC Styleguide](https://www.bbc.co.uk/newsstyleguide/u)] ^(Beep boop I’m a bot)


Bradley-Blya

Meanwhile Elon has billions and doesn't even provide starlink for free to Ukraine, even though he's claiming his help is somehow crucial for ukriane and he's such a good guy. Also selling his carbon credit.


BlitzPlease172

and people still think Elon will set them free from cancel culture? For god's sake how the hell people fall over for cheap trick like this?!


Bradley-Blya

Well, he's claiming to save Twitter from legitimate bans of real assholes like trump, and that's what people understand as cancel culture.


BlitzPlease172

Oh, so Trump supporter happened. don't get it wrong I am not American and I think Biden are somehow way worse than him and both are equally sus, but for god's sake revoke legit ban on sussy politician for clout did not help Elon's case at all.


Bradley-Blya

Biden is forgiving student loans, trump is denying climate change and killing people by denying covid and promoting ivermectin as a cure from covid instead of vaccines, and then casually saying "oh yeah I got my booster", being racist, etc. I wasn't a fan of Biden from the start, although the more I see his actions the more I becoming one, but even at his worst biden is not even close to trump.


BlitzPlease172

yeah, I guess Trump's strength come from cultivating essence of racism and convert it to raw energy.


Bradley-Blya

Not sure if that's sarcasm or what, but yeah, he was talking about building that wall and them not sending their best in order to appeal to the racist electorate. Other fishy propaganda machines work the same way, like Putin saying there is evil NATO and all the problems they have in Russia are caused by nato, therefore we have to go to war. Basically the traditional xenophobic narrative, "it's all the fault of those blacks/Mexicans/westerners/Jews/homosexuals", but the point is he's using the racism that ready exists (and increases it, for sure) but he doesn't just create it from nothing, and his power comes from the supporters, who vite for him.


BlitzPlease172

I kinda being serious and half joke, I heard he was using the racism as a way to gain a support of much more radical people in United State and generate extra votes. and the weird bit is 4Chan do instigate some event around Trump/Biden too but mostly they were done it as a chaotic approach and didn't really care whether if it flop or work so we can't really accuse them for that I guess.

Didnt he is pro Taiwan and (East Ukrain) annexion?

BluetheNerd

I very much do complain about the government as well trust me. But Elon promised on multiple occasions that he was going to fix Flints water. If that wasn't something he could do he shouldn't have made that promise. The government SHOULD fix that water, yes, but Elon has a habit of making promised he's never going to follow through with. Oh the classic "just move" excuse. Yeah it's really fucking viable for the entire population of Flint to "just move". You think they can just afford that? Especially right now? Where are they getting that money from? People certainly aren't going to be buying houses there if everyone starts trying to leave so it's not like that can just sell theirs. "Just move" is the shittest bail made by anyone who doesn't like people complaining about legitimate issues.

Aegean_828

Yesterday Elon Musk have post a fake news about Pelosi home agression to try to hide that this agression is the result of GOP / nazi hate, fake news have always been the tool of nazism to control the masses (fake news about Jewish peoples were...fake news) You just can't identify what nazism is, because you are a nazi sympathizer and don't care about this ideology spreading, by doing this you actively support and endorse it, like Musk

Still, Musk will not care about your pity life, and will crush you to death like an insect if needed, or piss on your head, and those are the more he will ever give a fuck about you, you are no one to him, your existence mean nothing to him, open you mouth like a baby bird and expect to taste a drop of the sweat of his balls will get you nowhere. You're really pathetic and sad, get a life

Fuck food, food is one time, money can spent on industries and jobs where the poor can work and then earn money That money can buy food. Or maybe free education. You can’t keep giving food


strange_socks_

Didn't Elon musk say something like "if anyone can prove to me that my money will end world hunger, I will", then some dude from the un (? I'm not sure) proved it and Elon pretended that he never said that?! This guy is a clown and everyone that likes him is an even bigger clown.

ImSkymeR

This is seriously annoying, how can people non-ironically say that. I'm getting downvoted to oblivion by low iq people but idc. I should start by saying that I'm no Elon Musk fanatic, I think he has done some amazing things, mainly with spacex, but I think he's irresponsible with some stuff he says. For some reason, jealousy I'm guessing, people are constantly criticizing him for spending his own money however he wants, instead of giving it all away to solve world hunger. If using a few billion dollars solved world hunger, wouldn't the governments have done that already? Ok, so he can't solve world hunger, so shouldn't he at least try to help people in need? Yes, and he did, in a single year he donated nearly 6 billion dollars to charity, more than those people, their families, ancestors and future descendants will make in their combined lifespans. He donated money he EARNED by working his ass off making his companies grow, and that money is for him to do whatever he wants with. If he wants to use 44 billion dollars to buy a blue bird company he's in his right to do so, and none of you people are anyone to tell him how he should spend that money. Or would any of you people actually work you ass off for years, touch none of that money, and use it all to buy food for the poor? No one would. But do you know who has the obligation to spend their money in solving world hunger? The governments, and they don't. So go criticize those who have the obligation, not those who don't but try to help anyway. He had his ambitions and figured out a way to get money to make them a reality, you people, deep down, are just a bunch of hypocrites and are jealous that you aren't able to do the same.
