One of the reasons I support 95% tax rate on millionaires and billionaires is because extreme wealth makes individuals psychopaths. Not saying they all are, but enough of them are and they literally control everything.
Maybe you just need to be a psychopath to hoard such massive amounts of wealth in the first place.
Either way, it doesn’t hurt to tax the shit out of them.
That’s always been my view. It takes a unique kind of shit person to A) squeeze that much money out of everyone below you and B) hoard the wealth rather than give it away even when you have so much more than you will ever need.
And C) continue in the pursuit of wealth rather than fucking off and just enjoying life with your fortune.
This is what Tom did after selling Myspace.
Did the billions of dollars make them psychopaths, or at that point, did they become rich enough they don’t have to bother hiding it anymore?
Short of winning the lottery, I can’t see how anyone can become a billionaire without at least being a sociopath.
Theoretically, Notch (the guy who created Minecraft) and JK Rowling could have become billionaires without it being the direct result of them being psychopaths. Unfortunately it was coincident with them being psychopaths. 🤷♂️
Touche.
I thought Hatsune Miku created Minecraft
I feel like this is a really funny joke that I don’t get.
You and me both. I looked up the Wikipedia and now I’m even more confused https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hatsune_Miku
After notch started posting transphobic comments, a parody account said that Hatsune Miku made Minecraft. A bunch of people ran with it - and it became a meme.
Oh thanks for the heads up. That’s weird, but Internets gonna Internet, I guess.
I’ve always heard “in oder to be successful you have to be able or willing to do things others can’t or wont”. Global competition and increased technology has pretty well evened out the ability side of that quote leaving behind the other factor of what people are willing to do. I think the biggest decider on what people are willing to do is based on personal morals and ethics, so a person more willing to ignore ethics has a better chance of becoming successful. This is supported by statistics that show corporate executives and politicians exibiting psychopathic traits at higher rates than the general population. The only way I can think of to correct this is to have regulations on ethics, which is why I whole-heartedly support the CFPB and despise Republicans who try to shut it down.
I thought it was weird that the old man was constantly slurring to the point where it was hard to understand him.
Was he drinking?
Nah, his brain is just like that now.
Maybe Trump and Elon were doing mass amounts of ketamine before the interview.
He took out his dentures and forgot to put them back in. That is why he sounds like Sylvester slurping on Elons cock.
I’ve never heard Sylvester slurping Elon’s cock before.
Listen to the interview, your imagination will do the rest.
Shthufferrin’ Shthuccotash! It’s shtho shthmelly!

oh man. fact checked. I don’t know if I have that kind of time.
Well at least I suppose we should look at the total lie count, see if he’s achieved a new Personal High Score. I believe the NPR count was 162…in 64 minutes back at the Mar-a-Lago news conference.
At least give them the view so they’ll know to do it again
talk about a waste of time and energy. when it comes to The Orange Mussolini, I just write everything off as bullshit.
The stupid leading the stupid.
