When life gives you billionaires, make billionnaise.

Not the first nor the last time Burr has made similar comments on the billionaires place in American politics. He is right though.

The least we can do is give them mock trials and public executions.

Billionaires should not exist. You don’t get to be a billionaire without exploiting people - for that matter once you get over about 10M you’re probably stepping on people, or exploiting systems, in order to continue growing your wealth. And why, exactly? It’s a sickness that gets worse the richer someone gets. It’s been studied and confirmed that people who have excessive wealth convince themselves that they deserve it, they earned it individually, and that they are special and more valuable than others. So instead of riding off into the sunset, they feed their addiction by buying outsized and unearned power in order to shape the laws so that they can make more money. Just fuck off already - you won at capitalism, now get the fuck out of the way and stop screwing over everyone else and making our lives miserable.

Beyond 100M we should just take it all for the state. 100% tax rate. If you want to keep earning beyond that, then great, you will have the glory of contributing to the public good.

But since billionaires have convinced idiots to advocate against the idiots’ own interest, and argue that the billionaires can’t be constrained in any way, then this will never happen in the current social context. So next best thing is to do as Bill says. Put the fear of God into them.

CEOs could maintain control of society while avoiding bad press simply by providing people with what they need—living wages, healthcare, and secure retirement plans. They could still rule while ensuring a fairer system. BUT THEY WONT.

Billionaire dont deserve our respect nor loyalty. They can go fuck themselves for all I care. Dogs however are loyal and love us unconditionally.😂

Bill Burr’s project to turn every mansion into Luigi’s Mansion

Disagree. Rabid dogs who must be euthanized deserve care, compassion, and respect when doing so. Rabies isn’t a life choice a dog makes.

Billionaires deserve no such care, compassion, or respect.

also did Bill Burr ever apologize for all the transphobic shit he’s said recently? Don’t get me wrong, I’m happy with anyone of any walk of life gaining class consciousness, especially if they talk about it. But it’d be even better if he’s stopped being transphobic on top of that.

Love Bill. The Monday morning podcast got me through the pandemic.

Yeow, going French Revolution on this one. I don’t mind wealthy people, but they cannot continue to fuck around with income distribution.

waow…

Incidentally, if anyone out there works as a PA or driver or something to one of these billionaires, tomorrow is “bring your piano wire to work day”.

Lol it’s funny when plebs get envious and jealous of billionaires

We also need a free and fair market where capitalism actually works
