What do these corporations have in common?

Metlife

In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes.
This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

The UK, where the day after a decision to take half a million children out of poverty, the media & political world has been full of sneering at those same children & their families, labelling them as ‘Benefits Street’, while the same people are moaning about a tax on £2m mansions. Shameful stuff.

If Musk put his money into a basic UK savings account paying 4%, this is the interest he would earn:
Per year: £14.4 billion
Per day: £39.45 million
Per hour: £1.64 million
Just the interest = 370,000 average UK earners.
And he doesn't work interest.
And he wants to pay less tax.

It’s hard to imagine the vast fortune that is Elon’s net worth currently estimated at $476.4billion or £360billion. If it helps, someone on an average salary who wanted to save up this much would have to had started saving in the Miocene epoch 12 million years ago. (assuming they saved every penny)

It's a shame the Brexit Museum hasn't happened - there was a real opportunity to have a giant Nigel Farage urinating on visitors as they entered.
