Do people legitimately not understand that going after middle managers while billionaires exist is fucking stupid?
And that the billionaire class would love that to be the diving line because that greatly increases the amount of people on their side.
There's not many billionaires, start at the top and work down.
Starting at the bottom and working up is so stupid of an idea I struggle to give people benefit of the doubt on why they'd think this was a good idea or try to promote it.
¿Por qué no los dos?
Let’s say you made $50k/year. It would take you 20,000 years to make a billion.
Let’s say you make $1m/year. It would take you 1,000 years to make a billion.
A billion is a dumb, immoral amount, and we have humans with hundreds of them, in theory. If you make a billion dollars, whatever earnings after should be taxed at 100%. It’s not “socialist” to make this claim. Rather, it’s inhuman to argue the opposite.
Id cap it at $10 million. I legitimately cant find a non-philanthropic use for $10 million.
Some quick napkin math says i can spend about $1.7 million before running out of ideas to spend money on. Thats a 4b/2ba house, replacement car, backup car, house mods, gifts for family/friends, and a giant fuck you overkill server rack build for whatever tech projects i want.
Put the rest in a garbage, basic ass savings fund and im already making more passively than i do manually now. I could blow $2k a day on literally anything and still make money.
Then why are “middle managers” vanguarding “billionaires”?
Why are kangaroos flying attack helicopters on Alderaan?
Quick edit:
Even if what you said wasn't as ridiculous as what I said, so fucking what?
Start with the billionaires and work down.
If you start at the bottom and work up to them, it won't work.
It just fucking won't.
Yes, why aren't “middle managers” “starting with the billionaires and work down”?
Their employers? What are they supposed to "start"? Every US state except Montana is completely at-will employment, you can be fired at any time for no reason. You think a floor manager at Amazon has any particular leverage over Jeff Bezos? A middle manager has no greater advantage against the billionaires than anyone else.
You don't think there are communists and anarchists in middle management? Don't be daft
They can also die from drug overdoses and freak accidents
my greatest joy in middle management was when people didn't even realize I was their boss.
Like a football referee, the unnoticed boss is the best boss 😁
