Sheep-Goats posted:Cars like that are what makes life worth living though. I mean, unless you're a starving kid from Chad, then what would make life worth living would be a scoop of dried corn you could boil in a discarded army helmet, but you know what I mean. hell yeah if you don't have at least 500 horses in your car why bother living at all?

Pawn 17 posted:Im fairly sure that even if we destroyed the rich, redistributed their assets and then went full socialist, over time money of the many would fall into the hands of the few and a new super rich class would be formed. The new rich would then use their wealth to change the laws back to capitalism. Yeah, imagine just that we have just a guaranteed basic income. I'm going to set up shop and say "hey if you give me the next three months of income when it comes in, I'll write you a check for 90% of that right now!" and now I can get rich off of dumb people. Even in a moneyless society, you could do the same with food, or medicine, or whatever, unless you go full hog and distribute the exact amount of everything to everyone at the moment of consumption (a la prison). Plenty of opportunities like this exist if you're creative enough, even in a real socialism communism world.

Pawn 17 posted:Something like 50% of all rich people are preppers and have reserved spots in huge self-sustaining complexes/bunkers for just such an occasion. They also have vacation houses in other countries that are more rich people friendly. And yachts. And private security trained to murder thousands of poors on command. Hope you guys are up for a challenge! Yeah but the private security belong to the poor class, and will eat the rich guy they're supposed to be protecting. And then they'll take his stuff.

The Management posted:Lmao the American poor can't even get out to vote for candidates that are in their own interest, what makes you think they're ever going to take to the streets in armed insurrection? Half of people didn't bother to vote, and half of those who did (mostly poor uneducated whites) voted for loving trump. Yes, but let me tell you another important fact in this matter. Bernie would've won.

If I'm a billionaire am I in the top 1%? My parents didn't tell me important things like this before they were gunned down outside the opera.

SpaceClown posted:Where in the gently caress can you buy 4 cans of coke for one dollar, let alone 1200 calories worth of chips? I'm a thrifty shopper. The Super Big Gulp at 7/11 has refills for 99 cents, and is 44oz. A normal can of Coke is 12oz. This means I get roughly 7.4 "cans" of Coke for each of the two dollars I spend. Edit: gently caress I misread your numbers. That's not cheaper than 4 for a dollar. Yeah that's pretty nuts.

General Dog posted:I think most people with over $100 million have it in like businesses and stocks and stuff like that that would be pretty hard for the govt. to just appropriate, it's not a bunch of gold coins in a vault Scrooge McDuck style. The government could just seize, from these rich folks, the means of production?

Blockade posted:How does one get started eating the rich? Just running a mob up to the corporate boardrooms and yacht docks and biting into their faces? How to organize the mob though? You gotta start with poor people and work your way up.

skeletonotherkin posted:Its always depressing to find out people in such positions only make a couple more dollars an hour than me, and I'm doing unskilled physical labor. Yeah I'm not sure people want to know that the day care workers they drop their infants off with barely get more than minimum wage to watch a room full of babies. (Yes there are ratio limits that have no real enforcement behind them)
