A good shove being about 250m/s of delta v? Perhaps more to be certain of where you’re landing. Not exactly trivial or stealthy. Why not just load up some nuclear waste on your “shoving device” and launch that exactly where you want?

Everyone goes on about the 100k issue. For 10 years I paid 60% between 50 and 60k due to child tax. The child tax has recently shifted to between 60k and 80k and reduced so it’s now about 51% (plus student loans)

The major change to income levels has been the massive increase in minimum wage. This removes the incentive to work hard and get skills because they aren’t valued, especially outside of London. The other major change is the continual diverg

Typically you’d join a party and steer it away. It’s hard because you are fighting such an asymmetric fight. But it’s easier than fighting via economic factors (with your wallet) alone. 100 million people to your cause in the us and you win
