The trillions of dollars in our retirement savings are enriching the ultra wealthy while they ravage our communities. A mass movement led by workers and pensioners can turn off the tap.

    Taking money AWAY from Billionaires? That’s TERRORISM (according to Donald Trump’s Executive Orders!)!

    Unfortunately, anything you invest anywhere, is ultimately going to enrich those same billionaires. We could all collectively decide to move our money to investments that aren’t currently being controlled by them, and by tomorrow afternoon they will have shifted their focus to the new “investment opportunity” that our money has just created for them.

    A wise man once said, “There is no such thing as a system that cannot be exploited, if given enough time and motivation.”

      I mean, that’s what they don’t seem to understand. It’s part of the social contract, they willingly submit and pay their taxes, or, at some point, they will end up hanging upside down from a pole.

      I don’t care if they’re rich, I care that they hoard so much while pretty much everyone else is suffering, all the while financing fascist propaganda.

      All because some billionaires want to fuck kids and not pay taxes. Eat the rich. They are destroying the world.
