Of course, I realized this right away. When we are done destroying everything, we are going to have to pay to fix it all up, as well as fix our own broken government.
Before we take it out of the Treasury, though, we should confiscate the entire fortunes and corporations of a few people, starting with Trump, Musk, Theil, Ellison, Bezos, the Waltons, and a bunch more. They wanted MAGA, they supported MAGA, and that choice will cost them every penny they've stolen to clean up their mess.
Netherlands here. Where should we apply for this US tax paid DEI grant?
pipedream
Why? It doesn't have to be. We are in unprecedented times, and it will require unprecedented solutions. Just because our elected leaders were too cowardly to do it the past
Perhaps the biggest one is a conscious decision that the citizens do not exist to serve the wealthy. The wealthy are allowed to keep their wealth, as long as they are serving the needs of the citizens. As soon as they are found to be hoarding wealth, abusing their employees or the systems, engaging in corruption, etc., they will be imprisoned, and their entire fortune confiscated, and their families prohibited from accessing government assistance.
The wealthy will quickly learn that wealth comes with important responsibilities and harsh punishments, and it might not be worth it to be wealthy.
