Eat the rich, problem solves itself.
I’ll argue that you only need to eat five rich. The first two will be shocking, the next two will be surprising that they were eaten despite all the security measures, the fifth being eaten is the reminder that the rich will be eaten.
You’ve taken care of like, 50% of the billionaires parasite issue with those 5, the remaining few will suddenly decide that social welfare programs are a good idea and donate so much that they are no longer billionaires.
Eat the rich and more rich pop up. It takes more than just “let’s get rid of who we think the sole problem is and everything will turn out fine”. The rich didn’t just appear from a vacuum, they’ve accumulated power and wealth for centuries, if not millennia. “Eating the rich” would require vastly more fundamental changes than just grabbing goods from the nearest billionaire and tossing at “the poors”.
Lol Eat the rich is a euphemism for killing them…not just taking their wealth.
No. Dine upon the flesh of the rich. Consume their nutrients so that you may absorb their power.
The problem is that value is derived from property rather than from work. You earn substantially more by owning a machine than by operating that machine, which rewards people who have money more than people who have skills.
Yes but their is not real answer to that. Even comunism where people own the means of production. Turns into a state where the leaders of that state make more money owning the machines then the workers on those machines.
Any system will always result in a cost to start the industry be it land in the past. Machines in the present or AI in the future. Those who have the resources to provide work for others will always have some form of power. And power will always lead to corruption.
All differing political stratagies do is change the process for gaining that power.
Except not really. Corruption is a problem but corruption happens in bourgeois democracy too, the overwhelmingly main source of wealth extraction that we can eliminate is surplus labor value extraction brought about by property relations. State socialism cuts away a massive problem while still retaining smaller ones.
Humanity would probably have to eliminate psycho/sociopathic behavior. Something like 1% of humanity (much higher rate in billionaire and CEO populations, like 25%+).
Like you said, designing a system that prevents them from taking control without pretty draconian measures that are likely to catch many false positives (and still be evaded by skilled psycho/sociopaths) seems pretty difficult.
Maybe AI will be able to filter them out of the population, but that’s full of moral and ethical pitfalls too.
Why do we keep saying ‘eat the rich’?
Just take their wealth and give it to those who need it. It is literally that simple.
Make them part of the working class. It’s a fate worse than death in their eyes.
Thats… literally what eat the rich means
That’s figuratively what eat the rich means.
Dammit I’m a FOOL i’m never going to have SEX now
Don’t worry. Stick with me, I’ll teach you all the pedantry you need to trick some idiot’s pants off.
The problem is it’s just a phrase. You can keep repeating it ad nauseam, but unless it comes with actual strategies to complete a goal… it’s as meaningless a phrase as all the rhetoric that right-wingers throw around. And they’re much better at it.
It’s not like entire books have been written by people who ran successful revolutions overthrowing the capitalists or anything.
I’d like to propose for maximum psychological impact they should be literally eaten using whatever gold plated dishware and diamond knives they’ve got laying around.
