npub1v2sycpx32th4h4aude3jq4g0kgj0p2t5062059l0fx0vcn8njs8spcmqq5 (npub1v2s…mqq5) Ten years ago, they would hide behind calling the #oligarchs “Job Creators” and arguing that making them pay more in taxes would somehow suddenly make them create fewer jobs. They were wrong, because no #oligarch creates a single job to help the employee, only for profit. Back then they were lying to at least pretend falsely that not taxing billionaires their fair share is bad for you and me.

Now there is no pretense. They openly work to replace our #democracy with #oligarchy.
