We are entering into "the great wealth transfer" where about $5.2 trillion (that's the one with more zeros than I can count) is about to pass from the, largely undeserving, super rich to their entirely undeserving heirs.
"Research by Forbes magazine found there were 15 billionaires aged 30 or under but that none had created their own wealth, instead benefitting from huge inheritances."
been staying in a secluded cottage which is heated solely by wood stoves & i've already really sunk into the pleasant groove of going out exploring all day, coming back in the evening, building a fire, making a lovely cup of tea & sitting back to admire my work, pretending i'm gazing at the whole goddamned establishment burning in hell. #scotland#holiday#ceasefireNow#eatTheRich
Oh look, they gave the crime-boss a reprieve so he doesn’t have to come up with the $400 million. Now it's only $100 million. I'm so glad the courts are so lenient to these well-to-do paragons of public service.
So you force #Ukraine to give up their nukes, you don't follow up with your "security assurances" when #russia first attacked. It's 2 years after the full scale invasion, and the aid for Ukraine is paused, and now you have the audacity to tell Ukraine to not attack russian #oil refineries because "think of the oil #prices 🥺"
Seeing a comment about Poilievre's $1725 per ticket fundraiser made me wonder how much of the CPC income is not received as tax-deductible political contributions (which are subject to limits) but instead as tax-deductible business or self-employment expenses (which are not).
This strikes me as a pretty massive loophole in our political funding rules.
And yes, I know that technically our Income Tax rules would not permit the expensing of these tickets, but fraud happens.
You know why people vote for prisons instead of houses for the homeless, even though it would obviously be cheaper to house them?
Because slavery. That's right, you can't extract labor from a homeless person, but you can enslave them and make it up by renting them out to private corporations as slave labor.
