i kinda feel like if no political party can present a candidate i can vote for in good conscience for the highest federal offices then i shouldn't have to pay federal taxes that year, and if they have a problem with that then this should be incentive to field better candidates

We should vote only for those who promise to make billionaires history.
We need a great levelling, through tax and redistribution.

I wish we could ignore Bill Gates on the climate crisis. But he’s a billionaire, so we can’t | George Monbiot

I love how weird and difficult-to-explain humor is.
Was talking about Monty Python & the Holy Grail with folks recently. Very quotable movie.
I said "There are those who call me... ... ... Tim."
And a few burst out laughing.
But to those who hadn't seen it, I sounded nuts! 😅

It *is* possible, and this gives me real hope, that the working class in general does not want to be ruled by billionaires forever and may be willing to take material actions against the possibility.
