Proposition 40, which will be on the ballot in November, would impose a one-time, 5% tax on California’s 200 billionaires,

These fucks will do anything to avoid paying taxes…

with 90% of the revenue from the proposed measure going toward the state’s health care program and 10% going toward education, food assistance, and administration. Brin, with a net worth of nearly $260 billion, could owe about $13 billion as a result of the tax.

Can’t be contributing to “socialism” I guess? Get some of that $260 billion liquid and pay up, dickhead.

      I came here from reddit recently and find this kind of content refreshing.

      It reflects the will of people, but gets you perma banned on reddit if you even hint at it

          Please refer to lemmy.ca instance rule #2 re: civility

          Argue in good faith, attack the argument; not the person, and promote a healthy debate. That includes implying violence, threats or wishes of violence and/or death.

            I think that threats are one thing and close to implying violence. But wishes of violence are like dreams. Like I wish I had a R34 GTR but that’s just a dream.

            The plumbing work, someone has to dispose of the shit of a clogged toilet, of Mario’s brother was widely celebrated. I would say it was in good faith. Or shall we argue in good faith about WW2?
