If you didn't know better, you'd assume this headline meant the government is adopting a Melenchon style proposal for a 100% inheritance tax for anything over €12 million. Unsurprisingly they're actually doing the opposite and cutting tax for a tiny wealthy minority. #TaxPolicy #WealthInequality #InheritanceTax #FR

Elon Musk has officially become the world's first trillionaire following SpaceX's monumental stock market debut, where shares soared to a peak of $176.50, solidifying his net worth at $1.11 trillion amid ongoing discussions about wealth inequality and the implications of such unprecedented wealth on global politics. #ElonMusk #SpaceXIPO #WealthInequality

Across Ireland & around the world, politics is too often shaped by the interests of the 1%, not the needs of the 99%. It has to change. Only socialist politics can take wealth & power out of the hands of billionaires and put it where it belongs: in the hands of ordinary people. #Socialism #WealthInequality #PowerToThePeople
When we start defining the 'bottom' as 80% of population, we know we are fully and comprehensively fu^ked. There is no middle class anymore. None possible. There is just a variant of an underclass sweeping across 8 out of 10 households in the US. #WealthInequality #MiddleClass #EconomicCrisis #US
About the travesty of "green colonialism". Worrying about climate change is a western luxury. If you want the rest of the world to care about global warming, first make everyone as rich as Greta Thunberg. /6 https://t.co/ve3RMrtY8H #GreenColonialism #ClimateJustice #WealthInequality #Nospecificcountrycodesarementionedinthetweet.

No, the rise in fuel prices and the accumulation of super profits in the pockets of a handful of ultra-rich individuals are not a fatality, but a choice tolerated and encouraged by the government. An unyielding government will prioritize the interests of the people over those... (translated)
In 2024, Nicolas Sarkozy told the sentencing judge that he received 14 million euros. How to explain that a retired president is as rich as football superstars? Why is no media talking about it? (translated)
The wealthy Matthieu Pigasse is completely in over his head: justifying anti-Semitism is difficult. The same goes for the excerpt about his very young partner with no experience or expertise that he has promoted to head of Combats... Supporting a sugar baby is expensive.
