    The disease is spreading. The USA once again has infected the world with hate and vitriol. It’s billionaires today, like the rich 100 years ago (Ford, Lindbergh, etc), are using their wealth to sow instability and violence. They need instability because like after WW2, they will be able to profit from the ruins. Americans are a disgusting people who keep allowing this to happen. They will bash me and you stating “it’s not our fault! We are victims too” as they continue their propaganda campaign for the world to love them. Well it’s time to shun these evil people, at least until they start hating their own country as much as everyone else does!

      We need a progressive #WealthTax . First in our countries and then it should spread around the world until it hits the US. We should be investing more in public services and repropriating essential services like public transport, electricity, water, and internet. None of that should’ve ever been sold to profiteering capitalists.

      A wealth tax isn’t enough though. It has to come with an exit tax, better education, less dependency on the US and stronger local markets. Reliance on foreign powers for critical services and resources makes outside influence too easy.

      And we should ban billionaires from ever setting foot in our countries. Fuck them. The shouldn’t exist.
