@greycat @godpod EXACTLY!

And they should only be paid for the time they are actually working, not a second more!

Also every kind of income should be taxed like #WageWork and #BuyBorrowDie needs to be criminalized as illegal #TaxDodging and #SocialSecurityFraud!

Queensland—and Australia as a whole—must implement a tax on gas exports from Gladstone. An alarming 75% of East Coast gas is shipped overseas, mainly to China, while households and businesses in the eastern states struggle with shortages and soaring prices. We need to put Australians first and secure an affordable domestic supply.

The federal government plans to double the tax on superannuation balances over $3 million, increasing it from 15% to 30%. Although set to start on 1 July this year, it’s not yet law. This change aims to create a fairer superannuation system. Currently, the wealthiest 10% are set to receive over $20 billion in super tax concessions this financial year.

@anon_opin not to mention:

People who "make a living" off "#ConditionlessIncome" aka. #RoboWealth with #CapitalGains, #Dividents, #InterestRates and #Rent should also be subject to the same #SocialSecurity and #Healthcare #Premiums and #Insurance terms as if they were #WageWorkers with the same #income.

  • After all, even a #Billionaire or #Investor can become #unemployed by virtue of loosing #wealth and/or unable to work by virtue of an accident, and it's safe to assume they could even become in need of permanent care.

So it seems fair to demand they also pay their "#FairShare", cuz if I as a #WageWorker can afford ~18% for #HealthInsurance and ~30% in terms of #IncomeTax, then they too can afford that!

The US #election politics are distracting from the organizing that we need to do to create #PeopleCare and #EarthCare and #FairShare. ... I am feeling grief over #Palestine and #Sudan and #extinction and the #climateCrisis. #ThankYou for our continued #Resistance to #colonialism and #capitalism. I am grateful for our revelations and our #building a new world.
Let's keep renewing our hopes and dreams for a #SolidarityEconomy #Beauty #Love #RegenerativeFutures #Emergence

@cy @ttiurani @HeavenlyPossum the first clue about how they'd behave irl comes with their culture of origin: Tonga. That's a culture of taking care of one another. Men cook and care for children there. I don't know that the same outcome would show with a group of "typical" American kids. I don't think it's "natural" for a group of kids to devolve into chaos and mayhem, but dominant culture and childhood experiences are definitely going to matter or make a difference. Difference in basic cultural values matters. It's why I've stayed in Polynesia, over returning to the continental u.s., the people aren't terrible or selfish. They know how to cooperate and be kind to one another. Embracing/accepting capitalism as fact, whether rich or poor, makes people desperate and shitty. #EarthCare #PeopleCare #FairShare
