Billions are going to die because of only 4,000 people with names and addresses.
We need more Luigi’s.
the fact that we know there will be 4000 of them implies there is a list of them somewhere.
where is the list?
Forbes publishes a lost of the wealthiest 400 every year, can start there
It's a great start. Though the truly wealthiest people on that list are mostly just the ones that are able to inflate their net worths with stocks. The wealthiest people in the world make sure much of their finances aren't public
Better start subtracting before they multiply.
I have only these to offer. ()
Trillionaire will be the new billionaire. Broke is still broke.
I have predicted through my life that one day I would be a millionaire but it would suck. So far it has not happened and now I think I won't be a millionaire but being one will still suck its just being a thousandaire will suck more.
Since we aren’t just printing enough extra money to cover this, guess where it’s coming from.
The kind of money that makes people billionaires doesn’t actually exist. It’s just a collection of “numba go up” scams.
Education, social services, healthcare aaaand you
And in 1987 there should have been 0 billionaires, and in 2026 we don't need billionaires
And at that point, it was 140 too many.
Is that accounting for inflation? Because in 1987 you only ("only") needed about $340m to be a billionaire in today's dollars.
If these people are so amazing to earn that much money, we should ship them all to mars and we'd have a thriving colony in a few years.
We gotta get those numbers down
Well, there was a time in history when nearly everyone in Zimbabwe were billionaires.... in Zimbabwe dollars... which apocalyptically inflated in value...
Financial obesity is an existential threat to any society that tolerates it, and needs to cease being celebrated, rewarded, and positioned as an aspirational goal.
Corporations are the only ‘persons’ which should be subjected to capital punishment, but billionaires should be euthanised through taxation.
funny how when you put the number of billionaires next to the number of people killed by billionaires you suddenly have a luigi hat on
That's a lot of people we have to eat!!!
We need to at the very least thin the herd drastically.
Wait, does this mean we'll eventually all be billionaires? Is my math right on this one?
Yes if the system stays the same then eventually, after enough inflation, we would all be billionaires (well, our descendants). In the same way everyone in Zimbabwe was a billionaire.
A lot of people want to ger rid of billionaires, but very few people actually want to get rid of the system that creates billionaires
because they dont want admit they also benefit from cheap labor from others.
That reminds me to buy more ammo
You can just look up where a lot of these guys live, fyi.
and how many thousandaires?
So much wealth stored in so few people. Imagine how much money will be unlocked from each billionaire eaten. It will pay for healthcare, childcare, housing, education, and nice towns to enjoy it all in.
No. No, I'm sorry, but this will not do. The hoarding of that much money is unacceptable. Eatings must be made.
Yeah, but how many will still have heads?
We need a clone army of Luigi’s. Let the clone wars begin.
At least there's some sustenance security
