Why Founders Are Useless and Greg Deserves 50% Equity
How to Become a Communist (Episode 1): The "He Didn't Build That" Accounting Method.
Whenever a capitalist bootlicker points out that an entrepreneur like Elon Musk, Jensen Huang, or Jeff Bezos created millions of jobs and trillions in economic value, you must immediately deploy our favorite line:
“Billionaires don’t create value, workers create all value! He just stole their surplus labor and exploited them!”
Lets look at how this Marxist logic works in the real world through a concrete case study:
Imagine a guy named Steve who starts a semiconductor company in his garage.
For the first four years, Steve makes $0. He maxes out six credit cards, eats instant ramen, sleeps four hours a night on a stained mattress, and shoulders 100% of the legal and financial liability.
If the venture collapses (as 90% of startups do), Steve loses his house, his marriage, and his credit score for life.
In Year 5, after Steve solves a nigh-impossible physics problem and convinces investors to risk $50 million on his prototype, the company finally builds a factory.
On Tuesday morning, the company hires Greg. Greg’s job is to water the plastic ficus plants in the lobby and occasionally restock the breakroom paper towels for $22 an hour.
Greg risked $0 to be there. If the company goes bankrupt on Friday, Greg loses nothing, collects his legally guaranteed paycheck on Friday , and goes across the street to water someone else's plants on Monday.
Now, according to our genius Communist Mathematics, who built this $100 billion empire?
Greg.

I just learned that I should be investing in artwork if i want to be a millionaire?
Seriously, I just learned that the filthy rich don't have to pay taxes on million dollar art purchases? jesus, it's like a mission in GTA or something, so much corruption? Is this even real? How does it work and why would it be setup like this? Was it the republicans or democrats who made these art is for billionaires rules?

Billionaires leaving California to avoid the tax is kind of like spoiled rich kids abandoning their aging parents who need help with medical expenses (and then buying a mansion in Miami instead).

Money makes slave out of a man.
I think, many people wouldnt do the work they dislike,
or do the things they didnt wanted to do, or take the decisions then didnt wanted to, if they had enough money.
What are your views ?

This is not a system that works for the people. It is a system that puts profits over people and wealth over human needs.

Stoppable
Stop an unstoppable force. How can morality be upheld if we cannot?
If we want to live in a fair world, everything needs to be stoppable. There needs to be an off switch to the exploiters. Exploitive* rich people. Cunning* Powerful people. Technology. AI.
The richest people are not stoppable. Wealth never seizes to reach them. They have engineered the flow of money to always arrive in their pocket. Inflation and interest work in their favour, they flourish, while most people deteriorate in afterthought.
The most powerful people are not stoppable. Power structures have left the poor and weak barely able to survive. Tyrants entrap their worshippers in deceitful borders, the most vulnerable obliterated while they sleep.
Technology and AI are not stoppable. The rich and powerful demand more of it. Advancements silently riddle into our lives, livelihood, bloodstream and DNA.
It was supposed to be for the greater good, but only when corruption remains stoppable.
*Edit: added exploitive and cunning to differentiate neutral groups to the corrupt variety.

Today’s perverse wealth distribution
There have always been wealthy people, but has today’s extreme concentration of personal wealth in the US created something unprecedented: individuals beyond the reach of the law whom even sovereign governments struggle to hold accountable?

We would have to have only one account if we turn into a monopoly (one single company that merged all while still allows salaries and money)
With a monopoly we would only need one log in account for everything.
We also have other benefits like
-no ads
-no scams
-we all are guaranteed jobs or unemployment compensation
-we might end up working less hours
-everything becomes similar and you get smarter
-we all can get healthier with the one company deciding against fried foods and high fructose corn syrup
