Placing “get rid of poor people” in the same conversation as grooming minors for “casting calls” lays bare an elite mindset that treats human beings as commodities—and the vulnerable as stock to be used.

1. Democrats had "The War on Poverty," Republicans have "The War on Poor People."

Both parties want to get rid of poverty, they just have starkly different methodology.

4. Right. The wording is clear.

Not, "how do we end poverty?" but rather, "how do we get rid of poor people?"

2. Musk, Thiel, Ellison, Epstein are Accelerationists.

3. I think that's why they have a Priapism for Greenland.

They've written the people of Earth off using all manner of chaos to achieve their ends, and Greenland is their version of Noah's Ark

Thanks for the thread vanessa_ca

6. The answer to that question is VERY easy...

How do you "get rid of poor people"?

You start by eliminating multi-billionaires. Taxes and incentives to divest of holdings that are not being used beyond personal enrichment are an affront to god and man at the levels we see now. There is nothing that should allow for individuals to bankrupt the nation by gaming the system and abusing the public trust. MAKE. THEM. PAY. No discounts, no carried interest. No more private armies to strike fear in the people and arrest the 'other'... no more.

Then, when you run out of them, you eliminate billionaires.
Then, if you STILL have poor people to "get rid of", you eliminate centi-millionaires.

You do this at the same time that you tax all corporations for the costs of all infrastructure and social costs of their businesses.
Toxic waste generated? They clean it FIRST, then claim 'profits'...
Roads and bridges stressed by shipping needs? They fix them or pay into a superfund to finance the maintenance and upkeep of the roads, bridges, airports and seaports. THEN they claim profits...

The bottom-line is this - we are not 'broke', we do not have a resource problem, we are not destitute - IF (and this is the big IF)... IF we collectively wake up and take control of the government, the military and re-establish public media as a primary and inviolate source of information and actual debate on how to proceed. We have a massive access and distribution issue.

No more billionaires alone would solve about half of the problems right away.
When billionaires no longer rule to world, the people will be better off for it.

How can we save the poor? I would offer up Bezos, Gates, Musk, and all the rest as kindling for the ultimate Bonfire of the Vanities...

7. Bravo!!!! I second every word of that.

For years I watched the greed grow and just knew that it would eventually take us down as a country.
