I thought taxation was a good thing though?
when it recoups money obtained via exploitation (the only means by which billionaires can exist) it is good. when the people who are exploited by said billionaires are crushed further under the boot of the wealthy (as you so enjoy the taste of licking) then it's bad [You must be logged in to view images.

Billionaires can also exist when the value of their stocks increases.

So you don't like taxes then?

See? We're not so different.

Do you like pirates? I think shares came out of piracy contracts.

profiting off the labor of others who provide your product with value is, by definition, exploitation

Lol, man you can do better than that.

I dont have a fear of black people at all, or any other race of people. I do however fear trials being decided by the court of public opinion, because the public is retarded. Chauvin should have been convicted of manslaughter at most. Murder is just a ludicrous charge given the evidence.
Thank heavens you're irrelevant and just whining online like the rest of us, then.

Don't you worry your pretty head, more murdering pigs will walk free in America. Right wing violence remains protected by law in the majority of cases.

That describes everyone though.

I'm just talking about trading stocks.

How does that exploit people?

"the action or fact of treating someone unfairly in order to benefit from their work." is the definition of exploitation. Unless you're being grossly underpaid - and I don't mean minimum wage for a minimum wage job - you're not being exploited.

Stocks exploit the people that can't afford stocks? I think that's what these people think. Stock owners profit off labor that often don't own stocks.

Bullshit but I think that's what they think.
