It's either ballet and opera, or because he's been inexplicably touted as one of the top 3 worlds sexiest men with HudCon πŸ€”

Thread.

A well-structured wealth tax that actually finds and targets this grotesque hoarding is vital.
Doctors, lawyers, people with a decent nest egg, etc will not be affected which is what anyone β€˜upper middle class’ is afraid of.
Meanwhile, we wouldn’t have to do things like ration dialysis.

I may be tempting providence but this kindle is now more than 10 years old and is a treasured library of hundreds of books. Currently finishing the Dungeon Crawler Carl series before moving on to the Golden Mean.

six drawings of a child's swing:
1. What the committee discussed (swing with an unworkable 3-layer seat)
2. What the project team designed (swing with unworkable 3 ropes, one through the middle of the seat)
3. what the mayor approved (swing stretched across the trunk of the tree)
4. what the contractors installed (swing with ropes attached to the trunk instead of a branch, seat sits useless on the ground)
5. what the engineers modified it to (the top of the tree is cut off so the swing can go through the middle of the tree)
6. what the public really wanted (an old tyre hanging invitingly from a branch)
