As long as a single human being is homeless or hungry, billionaires should not exist.

[-] Plastic_Ramses@lemmy.world 66 points 1 month ago

Billionaires shouldn't exist. Period.

Technicaly That is very dependent on the value of currency current or future one

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 23 points 1 month ago

I guess it could be said that the sort of wealth disparity that we have shouldn't exist

My vote is for the punisher tbh

[-] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Would love to see someone come up with a simple, yet easy to parse in single color, graphic of punisher killing a cop that we could put next to the logo on those trucks.

So we're going to support a democratic system to tax people and service the underprivileged, right?

We're going to do that, right?

We got all the dystopia and none of the cool futuretech.

[-] ayyy@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 month ago

Low latency cell phone coverage anywhere on the planet using LEO satellites is undeniably cool future tech.

Exactly. I would like cybernetic arms and legs and eyes that let me scan everything. But instead we get the most boring dystopia.

No, see, I made all my money by inheriting it, and because I'm rich and wealthy that means that god must love me, and therefore I must be a good person inherently. People are poor because god doesn't love them, therefore they must be bad people. Duh. /s

The real question is how do you define best system. I bet those billionaires think this is in fact a pretty good system. Though they are probably never satisfied, so they wouldn't say best until they could snap thier fingers and a million people would start working to make whatever idea popped into thier head happen.

Gatcha addicts.

All of them. Gambling addicts addicted to watching numbers grow.

The plan is going well. Now all we gotta do is convince all those sonobabiches to get on a Tesla rocket to Mars. As soon as that shit is outta here, we cut off communication and problem solved.

[-] Kvoth@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

I do somewhat disagree with this. Don't get me wrong, I'm very much on the eat the rich train. But, while not due to elons personal "brilliance" space x has cut the cost of going to space by a huge amount. And so many amazing things have come out of the space program

[-] SkybreakerEngineer@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

Sure, if by "Elon's brilliance" you mean decades of Congress forcing NASA to outsource plus a whole lot of engineers none of whom are also CEO

[-] Emerald@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

while not due to elons personal “brilliance”

[-] Chekhovs_Gun@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Why can't we do both? How many billionaires are there? How many of them have their own space company? I'm no mathologist but something doesn't add up.
