" I would rather live in a world with a 10x Musk and no homeless people than a more equal world like the current one but with no billionaires."
Right now we live in a world with a growing number of super billionaires and we have tons of homelessness. Especially San Francisco and LA have tons of super rich people but also many homeless. So it seems to me that breeding more billionaires is not going to solve anything.
- Jensson 2y agoCalifornia proves that even extreme level of tax income from taxing rich people doesn't help solve these social problems. The solution is to have a competent government, no amount of taxing or punishing the rich will help otherwise. So voting on people just because they say they will punish the rich is a good way to not solve the problem. Vote on competent people, not people looking to assign blame.
- rqtwteye 2y agoI agree. I was more pointing out that the previous comment stated that we basically have a choice of 10x more Musks and no homeless people or equality with lots of homelessness. I think there is zero evidence that increasing the number of rich people will help the issue at all.
