I would say with confidence that your knowledge in computers and solving problems contributed to your success.

Is that you… Windows 95?

Here’s an idea: stop allowing central banks to print money and hand it to the rich for free.

If you’re happy giving the rich free freshly printed money that screws you with the Cantillon effect, don’t complain about tax cuts. That’s a drop in the bucket.

You’re such an idiot you didn’t even understand what I did. I did a non-linear fit of the inverse law, not just a plot. But you’re ignorant so you can’t understand what that even means. Fuck off and read a book.

Calculus? Dude I have a PhD in physics. Calculus is children’s play. But anyway, I think it’s time to block you.

Dude, don’t tell me “you know” what Zipf law is when you questioned that whole inverse-law thing. Just shut up! Not only I shut you up by bringing it up, but I also did the math for you a fit a function for you to prove you wrong, which you, of course, won’t do because you’re lazy, assuming you even know how to fit data to a function. And now we’re changing the goal post so that you can be right. Make a plan that’s realistic, that doesn’t involve taxation as it’s done now maximized for the middle class, or fuck off and read a book! I’ve heard enough of your nonsense.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zipf's_law

“Taxes” are not taken from the richest rich as proposed by this dumb OP’s post. That’s why you’re wrong. What a stupid comment you made!

So are you gonna shut up now? Go read a book.

Edit: Because I know you’ll start barking anyway, I decided to fit the data of the top 100 billionaires to an inverse function. Now go read a book and learn how nature works.

Source of the data for 2023 billionaires: https://www.forbes.com/billionaires/

Make a better calculation then come back, and stop criticizing examples. If you understand statistics, you’ll see why whether 25 or 50 billionaires doesn’t make much of a difference. They all mostly follow inverse function distribution in wealth. There’s a law for it, forgot the name. So, no matter what amount you scrape from the top, it won’t make a difference.

Again, ignorance in real world phenomenon and attempts to talk policy. Please stop! Read a book!

The sad reality is that your revolutionary wish will kill millions of people in the process due to the failing economy, since no economy means no food delivery, no functioning infrastructure, etc. Well. I’m no moral judge here so it’s up to you. I’m just telling you it’s really expensive. Careful what you wish for.

I’ll do you one better. Even if you take ALL their money, that’s less than 6 months budget. You steal it from them, spend it in a few months, and you’re back where you started in no time. It doesn’t fix anything or change anything, but introduces tremendous problems (like inflation).

And besides that and completely ignoring all these direct problems, these assets are not even liquid (Surprise surprise, Jeff Bezos doesn’t store $5B in his safe). So, in order to cash them out, you’re gonna have to sell them on the open markets, crash the stock markets, crash real estate markets, etc, which will lead to much higher unemployment, and pension funds will be destroyed (just like in 2008), and millions will go bankrupt. And all this even ignores that the net worth you’re assigning to them ignores slippage, so it’s much less than 1.8 Trillion when sold on the open market, ignoring automated bots that will sell even more to protect their hedge funds.

Yes, let’s do all that destruction in the economy just for 6 months worth of spending. Great plan!

Like I always say: A bunch of ignorant, uneducated, stupid and entitled teenagers who don’t know anything about the economy want to decide how the economy works. Go read a book, and stop telling us how to run the world before you learn how the world works. Go learn, and your realistic suggestions are welcome. We all want a better world.

Do the total and calculate it all and show me whether it’s gonna last you a few days.

You plebs can’t do elementary school math and think you should talk policy. What a joke.

You do understand that the government budget is 4 trillion per year, right? Do the math! What’s wrong with you?

Regardless of how hard it’s to do this, you’ll get what out of this… 15B? That’s nothing… the government spends that in less than a day. Maybe cut government spending in half first. None of this is sustainable.

Angry? Dude I’m laughing my ass off! You’re complaining all the time on Lemmy how you’re broke and are failures. It’s you who are angry, and I’m laughing at you day and night! I enjoy watching you falling, broke and powerless. Lovely! Keep up your ignorance, entitlement and dumb ideologies, and my children will step on yours like cockroaches with wealth and power. I love it!

You wanna cry a little more that you can’t buy a home? Go ahead! But God forbid you read a book and learn what yield curve control means… hahahahahahaha!

So central banks are printing money left and right, controlling the market winners, controlling interest rates, short and long ends of the yield curve, inflation, and my testicles, and you call it a “free” market?

Genuine question. Are you stupid genetically or did you learn being stupid from your environment like every teenager around here who don’t understand shit in the economy?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA…

Yes, CDU and SPD pushing big government, carbon taxes, fossil fuels nonsense, gender pronouns, higher taxes… yeah, that’s all right-wing in the heart. Go fuck yourself. I don’t want to talk to you. Keep voting for them and call them right-wing all you want. The collapse will teach you and make me laugh.

I don’t hate gays. You’re just brainwashed.

The fact that you don’t realize that is evidence of how delusional you are. What country would you like? Let’s pick Germany, the strongest country in Europe economically.

The only right-wing party there and the one that’s vocal is the AfD. It took the price of electricity doubling and the AfD is at 20%, and the current government is launching all kinds of efforts trying to delegitimize them. And I don’t believe that 20% means anything. It’s just the usual cucks trying to “make a point”.

The government in Germany has been CDU forever and now SPD. Both parties are extreme left in everything. CDU is only conservative by name. Every single policy they followed is left wing, including socialism, open borders, trans nonsense, carbon nonsense, etc.

Now explain to me exactly when in Germany was the politics primarily right wing in the last 20 years.

You guys are pathetic! You’re so delusional it feels good to see you suffer. I mean… you wouldn’t even acknowledge that the mainstream has been leftist for decades? Amazing!

Keep voting left. Maybe the collapse will teach you a lesson or two.

Suffer! I love it!

I love how the teenagers here think that right wing ideology is the cause of the world’s problems, even though the left has been in power for like decades, literally in Europe and in the US conservatives are shifting with the overton window and becoming more to the left.

Keep voting left, and then when your countries fall, I’ll be laughing.

Suffer more, and feed my joy. You deserve every bit of it. You voted for it. You want it, and I love watching it.

Your country is not perfect and has its problems. I went to many European countries and saw the beggers everywhere. So spare me the bullshit. Besides, it’s a fact that the US leftist states have bigger homelessness problems.

Stupidity at its purest form: vote for socialism and leftism, and then when it destroys your city, call it capitalism. You guys come stragiht out of a comic book.

It’s 100% a coincidence that more leftist cities have bigger homelessness problems. You deserve this. You voted for this. Enjoy!

And hey, I don’t give two shits. I’m laughing at you.
