Does that have solo AI? That would be cool.

It does have an option for AIs and apparently boasts a good tutorial.

Nice lines. Individual income tax got nothing to do with taxing wealth over a billion though? And even less to do with there being a tonne of jobs which aren’t done that could be.

90% is a smidge less confiscatory but knocking that off seems to positively correlate to good number becoming more gooder.

Of all the numbers-go-up that affect you as a nameless labor drone, GDP is probably one of the least personally meaningful. It simply says the economy grew as a whole, says nothing about your share of it, and the way things have been going, your share of it shrank over the same period.

If all the ultra-wealthy can say in response to wealth tax proposals is threaten tax flight or regime change-- holy shit that wealth deserves to be confiscated all the more. They are welcome to try regime change... the ultra wealthy don't have a good track record winning that one in the last 300 years.

Personal wealth concentrated in excess of $1billion is only ever achieved through the application of unimaginable aggregate suffering and injustice. Simply having that much money is sinful, even Jesus knew it. IMO, frankly, they'd be lucky it's a wealth tax and not a bullet to the back of the head like it often was in the 1800's/1900's. Of course, we'd have to abolish the Senate in order to regain control of the government to then ever use it in a useful way, and that will never happen short of revolution.

Don't fall for their lies. You are for more useful to them than they are to you. Think about it lol, how convenient that they've got everyone thinking: "If you tax ultra rich multibillionaire people, everything will fall apart!"

Why should we raise taxes? we dont spend taxes on anything that benefits me.

Taxes go directly to people that hate me and hate my way of life.
