I managed to prevent Thomas Piketty hanging up on me and keep him on the line long enough to hear about his proposal to tax billionaires to curb climate change and criticisms of Ireland’s economic model https://t.co/ZoeTEuiAGe #TaxTheRich #ClimateAction #Economics #IE
Why not tax the windfall profits of @Shell and other fossil companies? Here's why: "Private enterprises can count on reaping the benefits only if they are confident that future prices will not be controlled. Otherwise, they are asked to engage in a heads-you-win, tails-I-lose https://t.co/HA8tsJ7cNe #WindfallProfits #FossilFuels #TaxTheRich #Thetweetdoesnotmentionanyspecificcountries #sotherearenocountrycodestoreturn.
Tax the rich -lausahdus Suomen kontekstiin faktapohjaisesti: -Alin 40 % tulonsaajista (alle 2000 euroa/kk tienaavat) maksaa vain 6 % tuloverokertymästä. -Alin 57 % tulonsaajista (alle 2800 euroa/kk tienaavat) maksaa vain 16 % tuloverokertymästä. Lähde: Verohallinto Todellisuudessa näitä enemmän tienaava vähemmistö (43 %) maksaa siis jo ylivoimaisen suuren osan (84 %) koko tuloverokertymästä. #TaxTheRich #Finland #IncomeInequality
Which is why these campaigns go after billionaires and profiteering, not just prices. Lawrence: "only organized people can beat organized money." The NYC winners ran on taxing extreme wealth. Concentrated wealth is a survival question for democracy. 8/ #WealthInequality #TaxTheRich #Democracy #Thetweetdoesnotmentionanyspecificcountries.Therefore #therearenocountrycodestoreturn.
Tuli vielä mieleen Minja Koskelan "Tax the rich" paidasta katsoa Vasemmistoliiton "miljonääriveron" laskelmia. Jos vasemmiston märkä uni toteutuisi ja yli miljoona euroa varallisuutta omistavilta (pl. oman asunnon arvo) sosialisoitaisiin koko omaisuus, kerätyillä varoilla voitaisiin maksaa valtion menoja vain noin vuoden verran. Ajatusharjoitus osoittaa, että vähälukuinen vauraiden joukkomme ei kykene kustantamaan tätä kulutusjuhlaa, vaikka jo kireää verotustamme hilattaisiin miten ylös tahansa. #TaxTheRich #Verot #Sosialismi

Das Kernproblem bei #TaxTheRich: Es geht um extreme Vermögen – nicht um hohe Einkommen. Geerbte 300 Wohnungen werden kaum besteuert. Die Union lenkt bewusst ab, indem sie immer wieder Spitzenverdiener ins Spiel bringt. Das ist kein Missverständnis – das ist Taktik. #ReichtumSteuer #Gerechtigkeit #Vermögenssteuer
The billionaires are hoarding all the resources, gorging themselves on the backs of workers, polluting freely, and controlling our democracies. This Friday at the #TaxTheRich event @SI_sinistra & @LeftAlliance_EU, I ask the question: shouldn't it be time to ban them? (translated)
Durante un incontro a Milano, Sinistra Italiana ha lanciato un appello per introdurre una tassa sui ricchi, sostenendo che la sinistra ha subito una subalternità culturale rispetto alla destra, con interventi di europarlamentari di Podemos e La France Insoumise che hanno sottolineato la necessità di recuperare risorse dai più abbienti per combattere la crescente povertà e disuguaglianza economica. #TaxTheRich #SinistraItaliano #Patrimoniale
Fratoianni revives, 'there is nothing absurd about taxing the rich' (translated)

With an effective wealth tax and inheritance tax, the lower incomes can finally be strengthened, and the welfare state can be better funded. Child allowance, free education and care, no VAT on hygiene products and staple foods. (translated)

New Yorks Bürgermeister Zohran Mamdani plant eine Luxussteuer auf Zweitwohnungen, was zu einem Konflikt mit dem Hedgefonds-Manager Ken Griffin führt, der die Maßnahme als Bedrohung für Investitionen in der Stadt ansieht und bereits Entscheidung getroffen hat, Arbeitsplätze nach Miami zu verlagern. #TaxTheRich #LuxuryTax #NewYorkCity
6.676 million in the first quarter of 2024, 8.487 million in 2025, and 10.815 in 2026. The obscene profits of the banks keep rising while people cannot afford the mortgage, rent, or purchases. We have repeated it many times, a 57% tax on banks NOW. (Original: 6.676 millones en el primer trimestre de 2024, 8.487 millones en el de 2025 y 10.815 en el de 2026. Los beneficios obscenos de la banca siguen subiendo y la gente no puede pagar la hipoteca, el alquiler o la compra. Lo hemos repetido muchas veces, impuesto del 57% a la banca YA.) #BankingProfits #WealthInequality #TaxTheRich #Nospecificcountriesarementionedinthearticle.
