    Financial obesity is an existential threat to any society that tolerates it, and needs to cease being celebrated, rewarded, and positioned as an aspirational goal.

    Corporations are the only ‘persons’ which should be subjected to capital punishment, but billionaires should be euthanised through taxation.

      It’s supposed to be a march for billionaires. I doubt many will show up themselves. The people marching will mostly be bootlickers.

      Could be at the same place, same time!

      Most likely the participants will be poor astroturfers sent on behalf of the billiodogs.

    “Vilifying billionaires is popular. Losing them is expensive.”

    Certainly, in the same way that failing to catch a bank robber and allowing them to skip town is expensive.

    Does anyone know where to sign up for all these paid protesting gigs? Because I can’t imagine a sane person going to this one voluntarily.
