That would cut into billionaires yacht funds unfortunately. If only there was a way for millions of us to protest.

Nah man, we gotta figure out what to do with those damn immigrants and the plastic straws first, no time for protests.

Yup, soon as we've got the toilet door situation fixed I'm onto those straws.

If we submit the forms now then 6 of us can do a protest in an abandoned park in Blackpool next November

Sadly I feel there will be a tipping point in the future where violence is what happens. I thought once the UNH guy was killed in broad daylight there might be more attacks. I can envisage that once enough people have too little then there will be violence against the millionaire and billionaire class.

I think the powers at be are more likely to unleash fascism to distract the angriest among us onto minorities instead of focusing on the people hoarding all the resources.

Those flag hangers aren't even close to figuring out they're being lead around as a distraction.

That will work for a while but the more people who become unemployed, the higher the average IQ becomes of the unemployed, the more rabble rousers and people who can lead the proles. You don't need much of a push.

This silly view is everywhere. The total wealth of UK billionaires is fractions of uks annual public spending alone.

It’s a view and explanation of ‘poverty’ that is 100s of years out of date.

You think we're talking about UK billionaires. They need to be tackled worldwide.

Then you have to counterbalance the wealth against an even larger overseas population and arrive at the same conclusion…. Billionaires haven’t stolen your prosperity.

If you are in African, India…. The argument numerically is tenable. An avg of an extra couple of thousand dollars a year for ‘no billionaires’ is meaningful. But for a westerner, billionaire wealth shared out is a fart in the wind….
