    We’re in agreement. But there needs to be a limit to how much can be hoarded.

    Made more than $100 million net as an individual this year? Here’s a trophy, 100% taxes beyond that 100mill, and another year of the lovely public dog park having your name on it as thanks.

      Exactly, I was commenting supporting you and I absolutely agree there should be limits too.

      Enshitification isn’t just an online thing, rather it’s everywhere that some MBA got a promotion for cutting costs and services in order to make their wealthy masters even richer. We need to disincentivise hoarding wealth especially so that things stop defaulting and trending towards shit.

        Ok, wasn’t quite sure haha.

        I think these guys are the same as actual hoarders, using dollars instead of old magazines etc. Do they actually use their own money, or just keep accruing ever more, ever faster?

          All good. I thought that your reply was well written and it made me think about the reasons and examples in my own country of why well run and funded public services at better beyond just the fact that the collective we own them. So many of our formally public services have gone to absolutely hell after being privtized by our previous governments while getting ridiculously more expensive just to appease shareholders of them and it sucks.
