Elon Musk Pretends He’s Leaving The Job He Supposedly Doesn’t Have To Not Return To The Job He Supposedly Never Left | Techdirt
The Labour government is in office — but economically, it feels like the Tories never left.
Rachel Reeves is taxing ordinary people while protecting the wealth of landlords, investors, and rentiers.
Borrowing is soaring, inequality is deepening, and nothing has changed except the party in charge.
At Vox Political, we’ve already laid out a better path — one that could raise £50 billion a year by taxing wealth fairly:
Equalising capital gains with income tax Surcharges on investment income Reforming pension relief VAT on financial services Progressive property tax
It’s time to stop punishing work while rewarding wealth

Tax the wealthy, a 2% tax on the billionaires, implemented world wide so they cannot move their money away, would raise $250 billion a year to fund the Green new deal and dvd the planet.

No surprise millionaire [Labour’s branch office manager in Scotland] Anas Sarwar is against a #WealthTax.
Like the rest of UK Labour the branch office in Scotland has been captured by the filthy rich.
Unless you’re filthy rich too there’s no point in voting Labour.
Next month [local elections] and forever after: #VoteGreen, that is unless you quite fancy living under PermaTory
rule in England.

Text of the audio "“Hi, I’m Jeff Bezos,” AI Jeff said. “This crosswalk is sponsored by Amazon Prime, with an important message—please, don’t tax the rich, otherwise all the other billionaires will move to Florida, too. Wouldn’t it be terrible if all the rich people left Seattle or got Luigi’d? And then normal people could afford to live here again.” Then, comedian Bo Burnham's "Bezos 1" song played.

I certainly didn't see the Carbon Tax as effective. Companies didn't change their practices.
As a low-income earner, I appreciated the rebate very much. But I don't care what it's called. Now it's gone.
A #WealthTax and #BasicIncome would be a much better solution! #UBI

France wants to make its one-off wealth tax permanent.
France's economy minister said Sunday that he wants to make a temporary tax on the wealthy into a permanent levy to make government financing "more equitable."
Eric Lombard said the measure would be part of efforts to find 40 billion euros next year, mainly from savings, to bring the public deficit to 4.6% of GDP in 2026.
If we had a #WealthTax these greedy crooks wouldn’t have the £ms to siphon off to their families.
It’s that simple.
Happy #SocialistSunday everyone. I don’t care what party you support, but if you agree with cuts to #DisabilityBenefits then shame on you! Will follow back like-minded people. #bbclaurak #TrevorPhillips #WelfareNotWarfare #DisabilityRebellion #WealthTax #TaxTheRich
