The Left Party says “there shouldn’t be any billionaires.” With Germany gearing up for an election, the far-left force has launched a new tax plan — though it will most likely never get a chance to implement it.

    World watches as majority of all humans on the planet slowly loose their wealth and ability to sustain themselves: … meh, can’t do much about it

    Someone suggests we should take wealth of wealthiest people even though it wouldn’t really hurt them anyway: … WWIII it is!

      What I truly don’t understand is, let’s say that the billionaires completely “win” and we’re all of their servants in some way. Who is going to actually protect them or serve them? Do they think they’ll be sitting in that bunker and everyone around them will cook for them and protect them from the people wanting to steal what they have? The extremely more likely scenario is that people just go in and take they what they want, servant, neighbor, whatever. They won’t be safe, lol. Desperate people will take you down to save their own family.

      I now know why there are always these loyal servants in movies that fight with the master to the end. It’s the wealthy paying for scripts to plant the seed, lol.
