Kinda like “The New Survivor” thing, be great for ratings, can’t believe I even have these thoughts, but at the moment I am so embarrassed to be an American.
I would make it more like Shirley Jackson's "The Lottery" among the fifty richest people in the world.
That would probably get some good teevee ratings!
My dear late husband said this was a good idea--and he died in 2011! I can't help but think things would be different if they had enacted this rule back when he was alive.
It would be enough to take all their money and possessions away and be given an entry-level job at a fast-food chain of their choice, and one month rent paid on an apartment that they can afford on their entry-level salary.
🤜Hey👊trump!☝️
...see how you've driven "good people" to think? There's millions of us that would love to see your head in a vice just like that one! "Po-thang!"
Cruelty begets cruelty. It would lead exactly where the French Revolution did. In the beginning, just the billionaires. Then, the bloody massacre of "the other side." But there would be a Robespierre...there always is.
The guy who is so inspiring, leading the revolution...but then he gets high on that power and recognition. It would change him. Those of us not found loyal enough to our own rebellion would be slaughtered. The violence would continue...our own Reign of Terror, created by our own hands.
Nah, just tax the shit out of them; increase the tax rate to 90% on any earnings over $10 mil. Lower the estate tax exemption and increase the estate tax rate to 90%. And remove the cap on social security.
We need a Labor party strategy that works for the working class, the ones about to be crushed.
We need to eat the rich.
We need to create unions.
They want to profits, we want life. Housing & food & to be able to maintain the flesh suit. And go to the movies, Meemaw Musk!
The very rich should pay their fair share of taxes, and relieve the tax burden of the lower and middle classes.
America was never supposed to have a "gentry" - at death, most of their money should go to the government.
HM.
the killing is the problem.
then you are the same in another way.
the biggest one gets ripped off his wealth,and we can choose an island,to put all them onto it. they can survive if they want to.
AND they experience to have nothing at all and no one helps.
How about this?
Two rounds
1) A global public lottery for top three choices
2) Another global lottery for the winner.
Cheap tickets in participating nations' local currency so everyone can play. Proceeds are returned proportionately each nation to fund food, housing, health and education.
Then corporations would argue that they are not people and do not deserve the treatment since it is a conglomerate of people. They’re weasels and would slink their way out of punishment one way or another.

But they don’t need to be sacrificed. Just stripped of their wealth.

Or also every dollar of wealth is a ticket in the lottery.
Unfortunately.

We have 4 Seasons, we can sacrifice one for each.
And a 5th one for Leap Year

Well initially, a gush down, but it would soon slow to a trickle.
Effective though.

I’m think your approach heads off the necessity of increasing tax rates beyond rescinding the Trump tax cuts for the rich.
