Wrong, they should CEASE to exist
Well, I don’t know about your but I’d prefer a system where it wouldn’t be possible for a single person to amass that many resources in the first place
Worker co-ops, social safety nets, guaranteed income and a robust, free universal healthcare option are all things we could do RIGHT NOW without hurting our precious capitalist empire at all. In the long run some businesses like the Healthcare companies will suffer and have to downsize, but it’s always been absolutely astonishing to me that a company like Tesla, IBM, Boeing, Walmart or other mega-companies close plants or stores and send tens of thousands of people into joblessness and poverty nobody bats an eye.
The moment we talk about actions that might impact the insurance empires suddenly we have to all worry about the workers and all the businesses that are connected to the insurance company and so on.
Worker co-ops
There is literally nothing that stops someone starting a business from organizing it as a worker co-op.
Worker co-ops, social safety nets, guaranteed income and a robust, free universal healthcare option are all things we could do RIGHT NOW without hurting our precious capitalist empire at all.
Let’s talk about just one of these, “guaranteed income”. What annual amount do you think we as a country can afford to give everyone in the US?
Edit: The fact that I have negative points for asking a simple question is a textbook example of ideologues’ hostility to even the slightest bit of what one would strain to even call ‘dissent’. Pitiful.
The answer is either “None of it” or “No more than you need”, depending on how based you are.
Accumulation should be removed, there should be no individual Capital Owners trying to collect more and more and more.
They should exsist, as a footnote in human history.
Why would I want to change your mind‽
%100. No one needs that much money to live comfortably. It is a mental disorder.
“Hey, this stuff you bought/created 40 years ago? It’s worth a lot more now, so you have a mental disorder.”
if something you bought 40 years ago is worth billions then it is probably a part of the mental illness yes
Wealth on that level requires exploitation. No ethical person would engage in the practices necessary in order to become a billionaire.
No. Will not change your mind
