Dolly Parton could have been a billionaire like Rowling but instead of funding anti-LGBTQ lawsuits she funded literacy programs. She helped generations of kids read instead of harming trans kids & fueling anti LGBTQ causes like JK Rowling. Dolly was very supportive of LGBTQ ppl https://t.co/94f6Wf9t80 #DollyParton #LGBTQ #Literacy #Therearenospecificcountrymentionsinthetweetprovided.
On va répéter plus fort pour que les médias du MILLIARDAIRE Bolloré entendent mieux. Oui, les milliardaires sont des nuisibles. Les milliardaires produisent de la récession économique : pour chaque point de pourcentage supplémentaire versé aux 20 % les plus riches d’un pays, le PIB de ce pays diminue de 0,08 %. Les milliardaires ne créent pas d’emplois : les grandes entreprises, entre 2012 et 2022, auraient supprimé environ 173 000 postes. Sur la même période, les microentreprises, les petites et moyennes entreprises, et les entreprises de taille intermédiaire ont créé 1,9 million d’emplois. Les milliardaires préfèrent rémunérer les actionnaires plutôt que recruter : pour chaque euro consacré à créer de l’emploi, LVMH en a consacré 239€ à rémunérer ses actionnaires. Les milliardaires sont riches grâce aux cadeaux fiscaux qu’on leur offre : les 378 ménages les plus riches ne paient que 2 % d’impôt sur leur « revenu économique », d’après l’Institut des politiques publiques. Les milliardaires n’ont aucun mérite : 80 % de la richesse des milliardaires français est due à l’héritage. Les milliardaires n’investissent pas : d’après le président du comité d’évaluation de la suppression de l’ISF, « les entreprises dont les actionnaires étaient jusqu’en 2017 assujetties à l’ISF n’ont pas investi davantage ensuite ». Les milliardaires ne financent pas l’économie réelle : 96 % des transactions qui s’opèrent sur les marchés financiers concernent des activités purement spéculatives. Oui, les milliardaires sont des nuisibles et en 2027, nous mettrons fin à l'ère de l'ultra-richesse avec @JLMelenchon ! #Billionaires #EconomicJustice #WealthInequality
A government that works for people not corporations won against big money once more. Congratulations @AngieNixon!! Nixon had $975,000 going into the primary, her opponent Vindman $16.3m. The winning formula: Affordability, good jobs & making billionaires pay. It’s unstoppable. https://t.co/QiUhzWNADy #GovernmentForThePeople #CampaignFinance #AffordableLiving #Therearenospecificcountriesmentionedinthetweet.Thus #therearenocountrycodestoreturn.
The billionaire class is organised. It’s time we did too — before it’s too late. 📚 Order ANTI-FASCIST ECONOMICS today. Out in October: https://t.co/18xcwqkNWD #AntiFascistEconomics #BillionaireClass #Organize #Nospecificcountrycodesarementionedinthetweet.
In California, it’s the people versus the billionaires: Silicon Valley is throwing everything it’s got at fighting a wealth tax. It shows why oligarchy is fundamentally incompatible with democracy as I argue in Anti-fascist Economics. Just look at who’s lining up to oppose #WealthTax #Oligarchy #Democracy #US
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
Rep. Ro Khanna: Voters want a Democratic Party that stands up for the working class over the billionaire class. Billionaires & their cronies: How dare you stand up for the will of the people against us, Ro!? “Capital Won’t Save Democracy”(Anti-fascist Economics, 10/2026). #WorkingClass #DemocraticParty #BillionaireClass #Therearenospecificcountriesmentionedinthetweet.
The question is, how many of these campaigns still fly under the radar and go unnoticed? And why can't we hold these billionaire-owned tech platforms accountable for their actions, or even make them pay taxes in the countries where they operate? #Accountability #TechGiants #TaxJustice #US #CA
🔥 Will Cain just DESTROYED the Democrat Socialists' $200 TRILLION spending wish list with cold hard math, proving the MIDDLE CLASS would actually be on the hook Universal healthcare: $75 trillion. Reparations: $28 trillion. Federal jobs guarantee: $60 trillion. Housing for all: $17 trillion. But there's NO MONEY to pay for it ⬇️ Confiscate ALL billionaire wealth? That only brings in $6.6 trillion. Tax ALL corporate profits to ZERO? $35 trillion. Implement 90% tax rates like the 1950s? Still only $2 trillion over 10 years. You STILL don't even reach the LOW estimate of $71 trillion, let alone $200 trillion. "So where do you go for the money? They go where they always end up going for the money: to YOU, the middle class." "Government spending would be 92% of GDP. That is a LOT of government. That is actually a fundamental rewriting of the American economy and a fundamental rewriting of America." https://x.com/nicksortor/status/2088002748079894843
There is a reason the 🍊🤡 –like Putin and Modi, Erdogan and Orban– has put so much energy into dismantling the free press: it’s a lot easier to lie to people and distract them from your broken promises when your billionaire buddies own the media https://t.co/PdJo4YIlqj #FreePress #MediaOwnership #Authoritarianism #RU #IN #TR #HU

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.
Good news! For the first time in at least 25 years (and perhaps in all of human history?), more than half of global billionaire wealth is now held by self-made entrepreneurs who earned their fortunes through competitive market activities, i.e. the rest of us buying their products https://t.co/1xPQaIrOh0 #BillionaireWealth #Entrepreneurship #MarketEconomy #Thetweetdoesnotspecificallymentionanycountries.Therefore #therearenocountrycodestoreturn.
Elon Musk lost almost half of his fortune in six weeks, reaching 684 billion dollars, while remaining the richest person in the world, despite a drop in the stocks of Tesla and SpaceX after a peak of 1.330 billion dollars. (translated)
Elon Musk has lost nearly half of his fortune in just six weeks, leaving him with an estimated $684 billion, but he remains the richest person in the world, with a fortune greater than that of numbers two and three combined. (translated)
Elon Musk has lost nearly half of his fortune in six weeks, dropping to 684 billion dollars, mainly due to the decline in the stock prices of SpaceX and Tesla, although he remains the richest person in the world, significantly surpassing Larry Page and Jeff Bezos. (translated)
I am one of those men who became a billionaire by hitting my goals.
Článek z časopisu The Economist popisuje, jak se mění pohled na miliardáře, kteří jsou nyní častěji považováni za ty, kteří si své bohatství vydobyli vlastními silami, avšak čelí silné kritice z politické scény, kde jsou často označováni za představitele nevyhovujícího ekonomického systému a zkorumpovaného politického vlivu. #Billionaires #WealthInequality #TaxReform
We have to stop putting billionaires on a pedestal. They may have knowledge and expertise in niche fields, but many are completely clueless about geopolitics. Elon predicted that Ukraine would fall back in 2023, and he's been willing to support pro-Russian parties such as AfD and #BillionaireCritique #Geopolitics #ElonMusk #UA #RU #de
