        Thats too low imho. People couldn’t inherit their Patents‘ house. I’d say 1000k

          Maybe >10M -> 100% would be fine. With 10M wealth you wont be buying media conglomerates, only maybe a small newspaper.

          The billionaires are the biggest problem and they have 1’000 millions or 1’000’000k.

              Yeah, not sure what I was thinking yesterday. I shouldn’t post on Lemmy when I’m that tired.

    The ants are feeling left out. We should include them. Perhaps we could bury a billionaire up to the neck in close proximity to an ant hill? As a treat?

    Did the bee live? He survived right? It would suck to be going about your productive life only to get randomly killed when you bump into a useless billionaire.

    Fuck. That’s incredibly sad, considering they’re already endangered. Bee lives matter.

              Nah I saw a post elsewhere that I figured would be appreciated in this group, so I crossposted it here.

              My “being touchy” is just me repeating a slightly revised version of the question asked by the weirdo who nobody asked to come and yuck on everyone else’s yum 🤷
